I met the Lord in Vegas one time - after a 38hr stint at the poker table inside the MGM Hotel - drank myself straight about 5 times.

They love people with the ability to drink themseves streight. Thats why they keep bringing you free drinks the longer you stay at the table losing.

Having been there last week, all I can say it provides tremendous contrast. You can easily see the whole universe and the face of God in the side of a steelhead after a week there. I went smallie fishing in the Hudson last night and thought I was on another planet. Maybe you'll see some wild burros or horses while you guys are out. We did. Pretty cool to see. Just remember LV has  the highest unemployment and foreclosure rates in the country. It explains why everyone seems to be trying to commit suicide by vehicle.  Vaya con Dios ,mi amigo.
 
 

Go to the pool at the Mirage-It might make you forget anything else in Vegas. Their brunch is great also.
Freemont St at night was cool.
Wave pool at Mandolay Bay was very nice.
Shoot a full auto toy at The Las Vegas Gun Club

spent the entire day hiking & driving around Red Rock Caynon Nation Conservation Area.. BEST day for sure.. Be paying for things later but well worth the effort put in.. I took at least 200 pictures (cant upload) and highly reccomend folks to go there.. Hiking trails galore and even if your not into hiking , easy road and plenty of pull off access.. Just a Great place..
Well , Thanks for the tips but not into the lights thing,cant sook a gun yet and cant swim in the pools but going to go watch the wife and sip some Busch I bought on way back for $15.99 30pk..

.I bumped into Lisa Minnelli in a hotel hall and had a nice chat with her

Meeting Jerry Busey at the Mirage in a hot tub was my only brush with fame in LV

by any chance, did you mean Gary?

no biggie, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

My bad-It was Gary Busey
Nice guy but that grin of his was kind of creepy

I don't keep up with the Hollywoodites - but I think both guys rearranged their brain matter via motorcycle accidents..

Then they went bonkers with the pill scripts....

Tuna the package just showed on my porch.
Only had time to slash the tape,you don't mess around with your packaging, and look over the titles.
No doubt there is going to be a wealth of good listening there.

Thank gooodness that I didn,t fall off a cycle.

Amen. I am glad my brain isn't scrambled or I may have trouble contacting my pain management guy to call my refills in. That would suck.

well getting ready for day 4.. It's 8:30am and my meetings start at 9. We found the night time is the only time to walk the streets and get anything worth while out of tourism.. At least you cant see ALL the trash as well.. So cant wait to get outta here but stuck until friday.. Thinking of blowing off meetings tomorrow just to head back to the canyons for some soul cleansing, not that I been a bad boy..
I have been to NYC and other major citys many times before but this for fact is the Bowels of USA even by salmon river salmon season standards.. LOL

My shoulder had a set back last night and after it blew up like a balloon Gary Busey had nothing on me.. Think I just need to get back home and chill in the recliner for a few days.. Funny thing, one of the vendors was handing out little pill dispenser key chain.. I'll see if I can grab a bunch for our crippled up crew here..

Well I see Dime decided to jump in on fish finder.. LOL.. Dude you think my responding or questioning some things we discuss.. Man you better get some REAL thick skin if you want to play in a shark tank with all that blood you got leaking out.. Just saying..
They are all good guys who tell it like it is to them or not afraid to retort others opinions... Many if not most are #'s folks when it comes to salmon which is all fine.. I'm a little different so I dont interact but TOTALLY respect them for being honest and straight forward..

For me as you know it dont matter if it 1-10 or 100 (yea right) fish caught over a time frame I'm fishing a salmon trip..But of course we all like to catch fish.. I'm not intrested in forcing the issue and correct my fishing if fish are being fouled or even lined (right in the mouth) one knows... I still get a kick out of statements like "it is what it is" I call that B.S. .. It is what you make it or want it to be.. the fish dont cange but people do or can..

Well gotta run..

Tuna I say it how I see it man; are your forum goggles skewed or something; it seems like you're starting to take things a Little serious... in all honesty no hard feelings man; i'll leave it at that...

you two boyz remind me of the brothers Darrell & Darrell on a hunting forum I visit.

Lunch break..

Drake I found a way to upload and thought you might get a kick outta this.. It is union made in the USA which is an A+ to me.. See if you can take one of those pictures I uploaded and put me in for a cut..

Darrell & Darrell , yea I'm sure and too Funny man..
Taking it serious ?? no way man .. just looking out for your vocal cords if your using smart phone on that site..

Ok here goes and I'm back to work..

First pic is looking at what we climbed.. Second was from atop.

It just needed to be done and so it was..
Out the front seat of a helicopter touring the Canyon to the floor then a Jet boat up the mighty Colorado.. Boy do I feel better. I Have been to the canyon 4 times prior but never done the above things.. WELL worth every penny !!
