Las Vegas

After a 3 day road trip covering about 1200 miles since leaving the state of Washington, we made it to Las Vegas on Monday evening. We stopped off at Bakersfield on Sunday & caught with Duane Jones & his partner Lori, went out with dinner with them.....wined & dined, a good night. Duane showed us around his workshop, showed us the jigs for making his chassis's etc & took us to his new place he had just purchased out of town, a couple of acres with a huge garage....,Duane is still in the process of repainting the interior etc.

It was Labour day here last weekend, Monday being a public holiday,their last long weekend of summer, so we picked a good day getting into Vegas...everyone was leaving, we've never seen traffic like it before, miles & miles of cars bumper to bumper.

Vegas is hot day and night, both days have been over a 100 F degrees, only cooling into the high 80s at night.We went to a show last night featuring the Coasters, Platters & Marvelettes, a great show, singing all their old hits.

After the show we wondered to "Downtown" the original old part of Vegas where they have a laser light show, hard to describe, but just fantastic to watch. Wondering back to our Casino we took plenty of photos & watched the "sights" and the lights of course.

Now heading back to LA....
