Summer of Love

I love flowers. The colors, the shapes, the smells, all of it.

HAIRSPRAY!

This past weekend was spent at Hun Fest in Balmer.
It was a hot sweaty day but fun fun fun.
Lynda, Chelsea, and I had our hair done by making a charitable donation.
We ate at a great restaurant called The Golden West and then found our way over to Canton for a little lite roller derby.

It only took me 45 minutes in the shower and a quarter bottle of conditioner to get my hair back to it's flat happy self. :-)

Viva Las Vegas

I spent the bulk of last week in Vegas on a business trip with my Dad. I learned the 4 tiered definition of psychopathy.
I enjoyed chorizo and eggs for breakfast several mornings at my favorite Vegas strong hold the Peppermill.
Dad and I walked The Strip one evening with a list off all the free things that can be done. We watched the water show at the Bellagio, looked for the lions at the MGM, found the flamingos in the gardens at the Flamingo Hotel, admired the statues at Caesar's, and tried to get our fortunes told (50c) at the Imperial Palace but the machine was broken.
We toured a chocolate factory and a cactus garden, a dam and the Liberace museum. We saw Mermaids and fish. Sampled some beers at three brewpubs in and around town and shopped at the "world's largest gift shop".
Over all it was a fun trip. However... Half the Strip is under construction. the Frontier Hotel is now a dirt lot and in it's place is planned another lush super hotel. Vegas is becoming a place to be seen, if your in your twenties and have a rocking body. I felt old and uninrested this time and it bummed me out a little. I miss old Vegas.
