GRANDMA'S IN !!!

WE PICKED UP MY MOTHER AT THE LAS VEGAS AIRPORT THIS AFTERNOON, LOOK'IN GOOD AND GLAD TO BE OUT OF THE FROZEN NORTH OF WISCONSIN. HER RETURN FLIGHT TO GREEN BAY ISN'T UNTIL MARCH 5TH SO SHE WILL BE HERE TO ENJOY OUR MILD WINTER WEATHER TILL SPRING.

WE WERE UP AND AT IT EARLY, SO WE COULD CATCH PAULIE AFTER WORKING GRAVEYARD FOR BREAKFAST. HE TOO, IS DOING WELL AND WE HADN'T SEEN HIM SINCE THE WEDDING IN GREEN BAY.

WE TALKED OF "VEGAS 80" AND HAVING THE FAMILY VISITING NEVADA, SOME FOR THE FIRST TIME.

WE HAD A FEW HOURS TO KILL AND DID SOME SHOPPING AND THEN HIT THE STRIP FOR A NICE WALK ABOUT. VEGAS SURE IS CHANGING. THE CITY CENTER PROJECT HAD SO MANY CRANES YOU COULDN'T COUNT THEM ALL, AND ACROSS THE STREET WHAT WAS ONCE THE NEW ALADDIN, IS NOW LOOKING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AS PLANT HOLLYWOOD.

ALL IN ALL A PERFECT DAY WITH FAMILY ON THE DESERT, WITH SUNSHINE.
