Our Little Buddy

Our friend Chris came from Seattle for a visit. He has never been to Las Vegas, so we showed him a few places. The first stop was Lake Mead. Saturday, during the day, was beautiful and we had a chance to do a little driving around. By late afternoon the weather was turning cold and windy. By the time we made it down to the strip that night it was raining, but it actually was to our advantage because we were able to drive down the length of the strip without much traffic!

Boulder City Brewing Company--great place for beer!
The conservatory at the Bellagio. It's the "year of the rat", so Chris and I posed in front of the flower rat. We had fun walking around the casino and the "boys" enjoyed looking at all the girls trying to get into the nightclub. Shelly enjoyed looking at all the jewlery at Tiffany's figuring out what she wants for her birthday (yeah right, how 'bout a job first?!)
