OK, so we're in Las Vegas.

What do we get? The first tropical storm to hit here in 84 years.

It's a Buc-ee's trip.

My cleaning lady is there too on vacation.

They say they’ll get multiple years worth of rain in a couple of days.

Should be interesting.

[Mik]

I’m hearing 2 to 4 inches. It did rain a bit yesterday, but was still sunny. The desert is always surprising. Headed out to Red Rock Canyon today.

Go to the Saints game.

Here’s the predictions. 60% 2 to 4 inches.

Vegas averages 4” a year.

Sure wish we could take some of that off their hands...

[Mik]

Went out to Red Rock Canyon yesterday, was next to a big storm. Not much rain on us but we got to see flash flooding in the desert up close. Pretty cool. Beautiful scenic drive. I wish this pic did it justice, but you just have to see it.

Wow that's awesome.

[bachophile]

I’ve done a southern Utah drive. Red rock areas are magnificent

[LuFins Dad]

Gorgeous, but please be careful. You don’t know the area, don’t know what roads cut through where. That runoff from the mountains is no joke.

[Mik]

I've been well aware of desert floods for many years. Don't worry.

[Horace]

Beautiful. Similar to Bryce Canyon.

We also cruised the strip yesterday. I haven't been here since 1976. It's like Times Square x 1000. Grotesque, like in a sci-fi dystopia.

Go watch the Pirates show at Treasure Island. If you time it right, you can also watch the water show at Bellagio.

I'm not much one for man-made spectacle.

You’re a musical theater guy. That’s nothing but manmade spectacle…

Seriously, the Treasure Island Show is a Broadway show.

[Mik]

No. Cats is spectacle. The Drowsy Chaperone is a Broadway musical.
