This year’s Las Vegas Pilgrimage, dubbed LV 2013, is my ninth trip here, our seventh together, and fifth stay at Tahiti Village. So far it’s off to a great start, especially with the flight. Southwest moved the departure time up … Continue reading →

Seriously? A Classic Vehicle?

Posted on September 26, 2013 by Steve

Spotted this while walking through the Planet Hollywood (formerly the Aladdin) parking lot last night. A Chrysler LeBaron, aka a K-car, with ‘classic vehicle’ plates. I guess Nevada has a pity category for any of these still functioning. The designation is … Continue reading →

By the time you’re reading this, the plane should be in the air or we’ve arrived for what is my ninth trip to Las Vegas. Woo hoo! I thought the day would never come with how long the Summer of … Continue reading →

Vegas Day Five: Gambling Pays!

Posted on October 6, 2005 by Steve

Last full day in Las Vegas, a quick (overpriced) breakfast at Luxor. Rather fitting that the young lady named Semira who served us is from Eritrea (I guessed Eithiopia), that part of Africa was part of Ancient Egypt’s Upper Kingdom. … Continue reading →

Posted on September 30, 2005 by Steve

Vegas Day Two: Gaining Momentum

Posted on September 30, 2005 by Steve

The day was pretty cool with a start at Paris for breakfast because I usually like that meal the least, but they spoil you at the buffet. Crepes made-to-order, veal sausage, pate and other unusual delights French people (allegedly) cook. … Continue reading →

Vegas Day One: Arrival, Theme Coined

Posted on September 30, 2005 by Steve

The flight was uneventful, other than the stop in Lubbock to pack the plane to capacity. I think it was rather cool and fitting that wireless access at McCarron Airport is free. Must be the equivalent of the legendary free … Continue reading →

Posted on September 24, 2005 by Steve

I can’t wait to go. Hitting LV with my best bud Hoser and we’ll be staying at the Luxor. He’s invited a couple of his friends I’m hoping will be cool with me.

In honor of my upcoming vacation with José (aka the Hoser), I have changed the colors (or theme)to the colors on the famous sign on the south side of the Strip. You should know, it’s the Welcome to Las Vegas … Continue reading →
