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

            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. IMG_3877.jpeg

                  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.

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

                      Beautiful. Similar to Bryce Canyon.

                      Education is extremely important.

                          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.

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

                                Seriously, the Treasure Island Show is a Broadway show.

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

                                    I looked. The pirate show is no more, replaced by an Avengers themed something or other.

                                      Really? How frigging stupid. That show was fantastic. Great music and singing, really incredible stunts and pyrotechnics, and hot girls dressed as sirens and Pirates. That’s a damn shame. And what the hell does The Avengers have to do with Treasure Island?

                                        Shows you how long it’s been since I was there… Actually, it would have been 2012… And that trip was the one with the thunderstorms. I remember thinking I could cross this one street, the water was only 3 inches or so… Then I saw the police officer get bowled over…

                                          Mik, I highly recommend driving up to Valley of Fire State Park while you are there. It about 45 minutes out of Vegas. It is truly other worldly.
