I shot some birds... with the Fuji

It was such a nice day out.. Chell and I grabbed our cameras and found  Floyd Lamb Park. The home of the first ranch in Las Vegas.

With water.. I miss random bodies of water.

The Canada Geese are very poopy  friendly when they weren't messing up the grass and sidewalk.

It's a race !

They ignore you when you don't have bread

This guy was super personable.. He wanted to come home with us.. but we have a Bella and no pond.

He is sad we told him to stay at the park.. see the tears of sadness?

That looks more like Vegas.. Dusty and dry

Peacocks? Oh yes they did.. many of the proud birds.

Part of the original Ranch,, That horse is an impostor.

The real horses.. $5.00 rides in a little corral.

I won't lie... I liked these sassy Guys.

Seriously, who can say they saw a Peacock on a roof today? I can!

The weather, scenery and company made for a very nice Saturday afternoon!

I remember how a long long time ago, when Dad was building the house in American Fork. Mom was brilliant in having him put in hook ups for 2 washing machines and dryers.

Now 30 plus years later that practical solution has been up graded.

Two loads at once! (One mini load)

I'm sure it will be cheap enough to make it cost effective... nah not really.

Sunday Blahs

Living in a 24 hour town, I am lucky to have a Monday through Friday, 8-4:30 job.
That being said.....  It's Sunday night and this is how I feel.

I love my weekends.. Hanging with my girl, sleeping in, reading, baking. Sometimes even playing tourist. Anything and everything that doesn't include commuting, data entry or waking up early!

please !

Every weekday morning.

Even pathetically cute kittens can't help.

I won't lie... coffee does help.

What?

But on the bright side.. I look forward to snuggling up with my woman.. and watching quality TV tonight!

What did you expect 'Downtown Abbey?"

Let It Snow...

Today's theme on Facebook seems to be snow fun.

Because snow.

Family and friends  out there enjoying the slopes and sledding hills.

Weeeeeeee

I would be jealous, except it has been unseasonably cold in Vegas  and I remember every time I step outside I hate the cold!

Sure flying down frozen landscapes looks fun, for a moment.. then I flashback to the winter months of most of my life.

How happy am I that I don't own a snow shovel?

No more commuting with this guy on the road...  

Here is one of my favorite shots off of Facebook today. (Taken from J.C.'s page)

Get it? HO HO HO ! Santa would be proud!

I'm just glad that the days are getting longer, and by Wednesday Vegas will be back up to 65 degrees!

Memories from past winters... oh how I don't miss you cold, white snow.

Bee Gees The Review

So we decided last week to travel all the way to the Santa Fe (About a block away)
That we would Stayn' alive  Stay up past our bed time and watch a Bee Gees cover band.

It was free.. What can I say?

So we order our $4.00 sodas, grabbed a booth and got ready to be dazzled.

If you have a imagination they could pass for the band..

First 3 song were classic tunes.. songs that made the group famous... 

They did alright,... but we were honestly more entertained by the few groupies that got up to dance.

I use the term 'dance' as in 60 plus year old women shuffling on the floor and two younger women classic disco moved around them....

Chells comment to me.. "We are not that old and sad are we?"

Oh god I hope not!

So just as we are having us some Travolta Fever, the band decided they are done with the Bee Gees and start covering every 70's disco tune made..

Hey now! this is some Jive Talkin..
 I want to DISCOOOOOO

Then they were tired of that whole genre and hit us up with so Maroon 5 'Moves like Jagger'

Levine is praying for you Bee Gees Gold.

All and all if was a entertaining night.

The band gets a C because, they don't understand the concept of a tribute band..

They are still playing Friday nights.. so if you're in Vegas you can get your Disco on!

Now that is some shiny jackets and chest hair... Sexy!!!!

The real Bee Gees were part of my generations childhood into early adulthood.. Catchy songs that will stay with me forever!
