Only 62 days remain before Somara and me are in Las Vegas for vacation (it’s also a belated birthday present for her). However, I’m now reminiscing about the time I was there on this day last year. What a trip and great time it was. Still hotter than blazes every day José, Glenn and I were there.
I always learn something new about staying in the city of Lost Wages. In 1997 it was “set aside a certain amount of money for gambling and already consider it lost.” I only dropped $30 during the four weeks I was living out of a hotel that year but I could’ve enjoyed the gambling more if I had the better attitude with the money. At least I know I will never have an addiction because I get irked when I’ve lost enough times. In 2003 it was how useful cell phones are since not everyone stayed at the same hotel and coordinating everyone for a meal or entertainment goes more smoothly. In 2005 it was “location matters and the monorail isn’t for immediate transportation.”
We’ll be there at the end of November, so I think the 2006 lesson will be to dress warmly.
