8/12 Hanging out in Las Vegas

Dave cleaned the front windows and put up the window shades. We put the window shades up on the inside of the windows but it just isn’t enough to keep some of the heat out. So now we have the inside, outside and the driving shades down in the windows to try and cool things down. He managed to wash some of the RV off too, in this heat.

After breakfast, of bagels, we went shopping at Walmart. We are out of milk, bread, drinks, water ect. the refrig. is almost empty. We shopped and even got seat covers for the jeep, the heat is just way too much. At least with seat covers and a steering wheel cover we don’t get burnt when we get in it. Same thing happens in Arizona so we really need it.

We came back to the RV to unload our shopping then headed into downtown Vegas. We went in search of my nephew, Michael’s, new store he has just taken over. Bath and Body Works. Nice place but small, he even said the last store he was at was double this size, but it does one hell of a business, which is good for him. We visited for a little while, decided to meet up on Monday night for dinner. Dave and I then headed out for Old Town Las Vegas, Fremont Street, I believe. That was nice to see again, street vendors, mimes, magicians, beggars. Hay, we were out of the heat. We had a 99 cent shrimp cocktail and a Bloody Mary, both were are joke.

We then came back to the RV and kicked back before heading back to Sam’s Town for dinner. 4pm we headed to Sam’s Town for our “endless tacos and enchiladas” and “bottomless Margaritas” hey it was $9.99. Tacos and enchiladas were pretty good, chips and salsa too, can’t say too much for the margaritas, don’t think they put any tequila in them.

After the late lunch early dinner we went gambling a little, we are not much at throwing away money, I know we should have a positive attitude maybe that would help. We just aren’t much on gambling anymore. Dave lost all his but I walked away ahead, and that is all that matters. Had a little fun and didn’t lose it all this time.

Back to the RV to watch the closing of the Olympics. Our plans may change again, Dave is getting tired of Vegas so we now be headed out on Wednesday. It all depends on if we can get into a show on Tuesday night, if we can’t we may be out of here on Tuesday. We have seen enough houses and until we get pre-approval it isn’t doing us any good to keep looking. They are out there and we won’t have any problems finding one once we are ready.
