Merry Christmas

Nancy and I decided months ago to travel somewhere warm and inexpensive for the Christmas holiday. Using frequent flyer miles, we were able to get free air fare and hotel in Las Vegas. We came to be warm, see some nice shows and visit friends in nearby Henderson.
Well, the inexpensive – got that one right. The warm – not so much : ( This is a week after their big 8″-10″ snow storm. Been in the 40s during the days here. Rain on one day as well.
Oh well – we’ve still had a nice time. We went to the Cirque du Soleil – LOVE show based on the music of the Beatles, Phantom of the Opera and the Hoover Dam.
