Viva Las Vegas!

Last weekend we attended my nephews' wedding to a wonderful girl named Amanda. They were married at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. Afterward, everyone got together at The Mix, which is on the top floor of the hotel. The best part was the restroom in the Mix lounge. There was little toilet closets and when you went in the whole wall was glass. So could go to the bathroom and look at a spectacular view of Las Vegas while peeing. It doesn't take much to excite me! We had a great time, but I don't need to rush right back there. Bye for now-Happy Thanksgiving all! Vicki & Ed

Ed-the wild animal wrangler







We finally stooped to a new low for excitement here. We flush water down mole holes, then close all of them up and wait for new holes, then put poison in them. Stephanie was flooding a hole and a mole popped out. Well, it was Ed to the rescue with our rake. He chased it-prodded it and carried it on the rake to the empty field next to us and lobbed him over the fence.
The last few weeks, most of our free time has been spent with our parents. We had Ed's mom here for a few days. She could breath easier here and enjoyed the trains. But with no TV, she was happy to get home to her familiar surroundings. Also, we took a trip to Phoenix and visited with both my parents, who have been divorced and remarried for many years. The traffic there is horrible and you couldn't pay me to live in Phoenix now.
Business is very slow now, but there is alot to do. The work campers last summer couldn't do much work because of physical and old age issues. Needless to say, the campground was overrun with weeds and a mess. We spend a few hours each day we work making a dent in a long list of things that need to be done. Ed and I enjoy the physical work though, and you can see a major improvement in the grounds already.
We are going to Las Vegas on Saturday for my nephews wedding. It's going to be at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and should be fun. I'll see if I can get a good picture and post it in my next blog. So long for now. We miss everyone! Vicki & Ed
