Ah hah...our reason for going to Las Vegas...the rodeo. This is women's chute dogging. |  |
This is pole bending. This is not sitting down on the job...accidents just happen. |

Sallie and Tom discussing the finer points of beer temperature served in plastic cups. |  |
Line dancing...yup, at every rodeo...you gotta stay limbered up. The cowboys waiting their turn at an event. |   |
Bull riding is one of the most dangerous rides at the rodeo. Those critters are big, heavy, and mean. |  |
Preparing the grounds around barrels used in flag racing, an exciting event where the horses, cowboys and cowgirls race at top speed trying to grab and place flags into buckets. |    |
"Who told you that you could take my picture?"...just kidding. He really was friendly. |  |
That evening, Carlos, Sallie, Ray and Frank toured Freemont Street where an extravaganza light show turns the roof of Freemont Street into a 1000 foot long video screen. |   |
Recently refurbished, the neon lights of Freemont Street. |

The next day we visit the "Strip" again. The beautiful entrance to the Bellagio. Great fountains and pool. |    |
Gondolas at the Venetian. A great place to visit. Very classily done. |   |
The Eiffel Tower in front of Paris, Paris. |    |
Extensive shopping areas in the Aladin. |   |
Exterior view of the main road in Las Vegas...the "Strip"....just think, it used to be dirt. |  |
