Las Vegas Bound . . .

The Town of Tinsel and Money . . .
I had never been to Las Vegas, but Guy had flown into Las Vegas a few years ago and spent some time there on the Strip. Driving into Las Vegas it looked pretty much as I had imagined it. Desert with sonic booming jets flying overhead from the Air Force base nearby.

The strip in the daytime was a bustling place with marquees flashing and at night it looked like a fairyland against the night time sky.

Not sure what it is, but it was bright

We spent a couple of days at Duck Creek RV Park, a very clean and pretty place close in to the action. There were a couple of large casinos about a block away with restaurants. We enjoyed the stay here, but I quickly realized that Las Vegas and the Neon lights were not my cup of tea.
