Vegas Baby!

I was lucky enough to get the weekend off and head to Vegas with Elayne, Jake, and Rebecca. It was a random getaway and a different group, but fun all the same. We were able to visit the strip, shop a little, and eat at some good restaurants. These pictures are from Margaritaville on Elayne's birthday.


We made friends with a man on stilts who made Elayne her very own twelve pounder that she somehow caught in a desert. It even stayed alive in our hotel room. Elayne was the life of the party for sure. She even volunteered to go on stage and then learned she was entering into a butt shaking contest. I have a video, but wont be posting it so I don't loose a friend.




On Saturday night we were able to try out Body English which is supposed to be the hippest new club in Vegas. Its in the Hard Rock casino in case you are headed down. We didn't think we'd get in, but the party saver Elayne managed to seduce the "bouncer" (I'm so out of practice I don't know if its cliche to call them that). Once inside we enjoyed the music and of course the dance floor. About twenty minutes into our adventure the DJ announced that Neyo and Brody Jenner were at the club. I'm not much of a crazed celebrity fan, but I'll admit I was impressed. An hour later Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson also showed up. It was pretty cool.

On the way home we ventured over to the Hoover Dam. It was fun but extremely hot. It cured any sleepiness we were suffering from the night before. We also saw a new bridge or roadway they are building. It is this crazy monstrosity of a contraption in the air far above any natural road should be. I know the phrase natural road sounds like an oxymoron, but there are such things... along creeks and stuff. You should check it out if you go down that way.
