Living in Las Vegas

We’ve been in Las Vegas two weeks today. We dropped our Ford F-150 off at the body shop on Monday, October 3^rd to get the hail damage fixed and it should be finished by the end of October. I went by to check on it this past Monday.

My sister Marcia and brother-in-law Mike spent a week with us here in Las Vegas. We got out and about some. We went to the National Mob Museum, downtown in the old post office building, and it is well worth a visit. We saw Jerry Lewis perform, talk about his career, and show film clips. He is 90 now and we enjoyed his show.

We researched the various buffets in town and the Bacchanal at Cesar’s Palace got the best reviews. We went with Mike & Marcia on a Tuesday afternoon and the food was very, very good. Afterwards, we walked to over to Bellagio’s to see Chihuly’s glass sculptures, the Conservatory decorated in fall colors, and the outside fountains.

 

On Thursday we went with Mike & Marcia to see the group Heart perform at the House of Blues. It was our first time seeing them in concert and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Mike & Marcia left last Friday, heading home to Virginia. They had planned to stop in Phoenix and Houston on the way to visit friends and family.

 

One of our favorite places to go for breakfast here in Las Vegas is Hash House A Go Go. They are well known for their egg benedicts with pork or chicken tenderloin but I tried the blueberry pancakes, with eggs and crispy bacon, on our last visit.

Julie and I are looking forward to seeing the Moody Blues perform at the Venetian on Friday night.
