Began our Friday with a bird walk in Henderson. Lots of ducks on the ponds. It was a beautiful morning to walk in the sunshine and cool temperature. We then met up with Cousin Patti Cook and Alison from Dallas/Fort Worth area for a drink
so much to talk about and so little time.. but so glad we got to hook up with them for a bit.
Me, Patty and Alison at Bahama Breeze
then off to meet up with the Gang for a bit of talking and eating at Sam’s Town.
Another wonderful day to be Thankful.
Saturday: met up with Kathy and John Castro for Breakfast at:
breakfast was large but very good
Picked up Roberta and John Gaskill for a walk at the Clark County Wetlands. Afterwards we stopped at Longhorn casino for a lesson on Blackjack. They have $2 tables there, and we lucked out, it was empty so the four of us sat down put our $20 on the table and played for about an hour. We all ended up winning! from $15 to $30! how fun that was.
time to stop for a cocktail
dinner was at the Tropicana hotel Bacio Italian Restaurant the food and service was marvelous. I had the shrimp risotto:
another great day with great friends…
Sunday: another sunny day with temps in the 60’s so we headed to Valley of Fire State Park just north of LV. My pictures does not do it justice, so beautiful and surreal.
more petroglyphs:
hiking some trails was difficult:
but well worth the effort
we did get one new bird and a few desert animals
met up with the gang for dinner and goodbyes.. we sure had a fun Holiday weekend. We cherish our time with friends and are so Thankful that we can meet up every year. Rumor has it that next year we will meet in Palm Springs….
Monday Dec 2, we are heading to Palm Springs (well actually Cathedral City) for the month! will be glad to settle down for a while and maybe lose a few of our holiday pounds.
