Arrival in Las Vegas


We left Needles on Thursday and had a very uneventful trip to Las Vegas. And we are greatful for that. The big highlight of the trip was watching all of the motorcycles driving in the opposite the direction. They were on their way to a motorcycle rally in Needles this weekend. It almost reminded us of the Sturges rally in South Dakota.

We arrived at the Oasis RV Resort by 12:30 pm and were all set up by 2:00 pm. For those of you who are rv'ers, you know that means we did it very slowly. As we usually do things. Setting up means that on the outside of the rig, I connect the water, electric, sewer hose, awnings out, tire covers on, chairs/tables set up on rug. On the inside of the rig, Barb takes all tables and chairs and dishes/pots that have been put up safely back down. Coffee pot gets unhooked, all albums and files that go in corners get put back in the correct place, etc.

We have spent Friday and Saturday with Robyn, Scott, Ashley and Zack. We are thrilled to see them and they have, as children do, grown up quite a bit in the last year.
Friday night we had a seder dinner.
We know it is at the end of Passover but decided it would be fun to have seder dinner and read the Haggudah with the kids. They have a children's version of the Haggudah and the kids did the majority of the readings. It was a wonderful experience. And the dinner was great ...... between Robyn's cooking and mine, we had all of the traditional foods..........gefilte fish, matzo ball soup, brisket, twice baked potatoes, green bean casserole, salad. Ymmmmmmm.

Saturday was Ashley's birthday and her party will be today at a nearby park. So we spent Saturday shopping for all of her birthday stuff.... cake, plates, etc. And Saturday night , she got to pick what restuarant she wanted to go to for her birthday. So we had a great dinner at Outback.






Today is the party. We will go there about noon.......party at 3:00pm.

Love and hugs,
Linda and Barb
