While I have still been busy working on Christmas projects, I have taken a little time out for some play.
On Friday we traveled to Las Vegas where we met up with son Kevin, and family. We spent three days visiting and running around to all the different casinos. Saturday night we drove over to Fremont Street. We spent some time wandering around, listening to the live music, checking out a few of the casinos, enjoying the light shows, and browsing the display carts.
While wandering around Fremont St, grandson Levi had fun meeting up with spiderman.
Later in the evening it started getting very crowded!
As always, the light show was lots of fun, though it's kinda hard to see here.
On Sunday Las Vegas Blvd was shut down while approximately 35 thousand runners headed out on either a 26 mile marathon, or a 13 mile half-marathon. I've never seen Las Vegas Blvd without any traffic. Pretty strange looking, don't ya think?
It was quite different with thousands of people running down the road instead!
Kevin ran the half-marathon with a pretty good time, even though the weather was windy and slowed down all of the runners.

I didn't think I would get this return picture but I managed to find Kevin in the sea of finishing runners!
Well, enough for today. I'll post a few more of my Las Vegas pictures in the next few days. Meantime I have to get back to my Christmas projects!
