Vegas the third and final trip of the summer


On August 22 my "oldest" friend Kim (oldest in the sense that we have been friends all of our lives. Our moms were pregnant together) and I made a twenty-four hour turn around trip to Vegas. The primary purpose of our trip was to see Poison perform but we had tons of fun with just about every aspect of our trip. We got to Vegas at around 1:30 or so and checked in from that point we walked over ten miles, saw three bands won eighty six dollars and slept about six hours. The concert was at the Pearl inside the Palms casino just across the street from our hotel.


We walked across the street about two hours before the show was scheduled to start


Sebastian Bach opened


Followed by Dokken


And finally Poison




After the concert we went back to the hotel where Kim proceeded to change. We couldn't decide if we wanted to go back out so we called Kim's boyfriend Brandon for a third opinion. Needless to stay we ended up back out and headed to the Strip.

Here is Kim in the Monte Carlo rotating door

The foot shot

The sort of depressing wall art adorning the hotel room walls


And a bug.
We wrapped up our trip by having breakfast with my grandma and her friend Harriet who live in Henderson but had stayed the night in a Hotel right of the strip in the opposite direction of us.
