Las Vegas, NV

Hoke took both of these pictures while cruising the strip in Las Vegas. He actually took many more pictures than this, these two just happened to be his favorite. We rented a mini-van for a day and were able to navigate the streets and parking decks with ease. During the day, we visited the New York, New York casino just to ride the roller coaster. Hoke decided he didn't want to enjoy the thrill of the ride so he and Sammy sat it out. After eating a late lunch we headed to our next destination, the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop featured on the television show Pawn Stars. We found it but were a little disappointed the stars weren't there. It was kinda neat seeing in person some of the items featured in some of the shows. Hoke bought an Old Man bobblehead and a bumper sticker signed by the Old Man. Weary from the heat and having soaked up all of Las Vegas we cared to soak, we head back to the campground. I dropped off my crowd and decided to use the last few hours I still had available with the rental vehicle to take a solo trip to the grocery store. It was dark by the time I finished replenishing our grocery needs and I forgot to make a turn on the way back to the campground. This could be part of the reason Sammy hasn't let me drive yet. Being lost wasn't too bad, I found a hot doughnuts sign. I forgot to mention a gallon of milk in Las Vegas only cost $2.19. I got extras for all of you. They're stored under the RV. Don't forget to pick yours up when we get home.
