Viva Las Vegas


We got to Thousand Trails LV Tuesday afternoon. This is an older park with the spaces somewhat close. Even though the park is about 3/4 full, we have not had neighbors on either side for three days so it has not been a problem. Satellite and Verizon access are both excellent here. We see some coaches here who were in Verde Valle with us, probably on their northward migration back to OR, WA.

Spent the first two days on laundry, shopping and routine maintenance. On Friday we drove west on Charleston Blvd to Red Rock Canyon. The picture says it all. Very beautiful scenery. We only did the scenic drive, but really enjoyed it. They say that the hiking trails take you to sights that puts the scenic drive to shame. However, it was pretty warm and we had the dogs with us so we stayed in the car.

After dinner we drove to the strip to check out the town. We meadered through the Bellagio, Ceasars, Mirage, Bally's and Paris checking out the casinos and watching the crowds. The slot machines usually assail the wallet for a few bucks but not this trip.
