Our wings are not tired.
Any suggestions on cheapish things to do (I really don't gamble).
My favorite thing to do in Vegas is people watch and wander. I love the fountains. I could move into the Bellagio it is so purty inside and out.
Yum. I just made tasty potatoes for the family dinner. It has been nice this last few weeks being near my mother and sister. We eat together a huge percentage of the time. I made these potatoes: [link] One more week in the mountains then back to Florida. sigh

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, I love the Venetian! For non-gambling, you really can spend a long time wandering around the casinos looking at the craziness. Especially Bellagio, Venetian, Paris, New York New York. There's a lot of shopping at Caesar's. Also many ridiculous free shows to look at.

Congratulations Robin! That's wonderful news!

The Conservatory at the Bellagio has a special exhibit right now. They recreated a train trip across the country. All the buildings and things are made from plants. It's supposed to be nifty. (And free.)
If you don't mind spending a few bucks, they also have a new Ansel Adams exhibition at their Gallery of Fine Art.

It's kind of cool, if weird.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Ah. Thanks y'all. I didn't know they had free shows. I thought it was all Wayne Newton and Siegfried and Roy. Someone did tell me once that Vegas was one of the cheapest vacations they'd ever had.
The train ride sounds especially cool, and I know Mr. Jane loves to people watch. There will be another bartender from the bar there too, so I may take her shopping with me (The trip is a gift from Mr. Jane's boss for the bar's 10th anniversary for the bartenders who've been there since the very early days. I'm the only significant other who gets to go)

By "free shows" I don't mean like with show girls, but there's a weird anamatronic "mythology" thing at Ceasars, and the fountains at the Bellagio, and like that.
OK, also? Instead of vacuuming, I'm watching Match Game and the clue was "Whenever my wife snores, I put my blank in her mouth." I shit you not.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just talked to Hec, and JZ is going home today, and in fact right about now.
YAY

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I think I understand. I just thought it was all big production stuff or gambling. I'm not against gambling or anything I just get bored with it. Maybe if I knew how to play craps or something really involved, but I don't so it's blackjack or slots both of which make me itchy.

Glad JZ gets to go home. #1 it's home and #2 it means things must be better.
I'm off to grab some white shirts, silver shoes and a bathing suit cover up. Vegas Baby!
