Baby Let's Go To Viva Las Vegas
The wife and I fly out at Noon today, will be there until Thursday for a work conference at MGM. Anyone in the Vegas area? One of the things on my list is to find Smoke Wagon bourbon.

It was, and I'll definitely need a pillow on the connecting flight.

Re: Baby Let's Go To Viva Las Vegas
Thanks for the comments, gents, and the beans were nice and spicy.
Halfway through the first day of the conference, on a quest to find some Smoke Wagon bourbon before flying out on Thursday. The weather has been gorgeous and we have done a lot of walking. But we like to walk.

Re: Baby Let's Go To Viva Las Vegas
Well, it might be a good idea to take the "Nest Egg" and head on over to the roulette table and see about making some REAL money! ... If that pans out, collecting GEC and Randalls would be chump change....

Re: Baby Let's Go To Viva Las Vegas
Like Dog said, hit the roulette table and win some real money! I recommend taking a piece of the pie. I like betting 5, 7, 17. 20, and 32. Will win every time ( okay, some of the time).

We're not gamblers, but we did a lot of walking and sight seeing. I won tickets to see Cirque du Soleil's Kà, it was amazing and the seats were awesome.

Re: Baby Let's Go To Viva Las Vegas
Awesome! Looks like a great trip. I lived in Vegas 20 years ago and have some good memories... Now is probably the best time of year to go. When I was there, I remember a day in the summertime that hit 120...

It was, GSP. The first picture is from the conference center of the hotel. It was almost a mile from our room to the conference center, a huge facility.
