I KNOW I’M NOT GETTING OLD, BUT I HAD TO BAIL OUT ON MIKEY IN LAS VEGAS. TIRED, BROKE, AND HUNG OVER, I PUT MY TAIL BETWEEN LEGS AND RETURNED TO MOHAVE VALLEY THREE DAYS BEFORE MIKEY RETURNS TO PRAIRE DU CHEIN. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, MARY WAS HAPPY TO SEE ME AFTER A COUPLE WEEKS.
I FOUND A FEW REMAINING PICTURES ON THE CAMERA.
IT’S A HAPPY ST PATS DAY BLOG FROM LAS VEGAS, AND ONLY TWO DAYS LATE. YOU KNOW, IT TOOK TWO DAYS FOR MIKEY AND I TO RECOVER………
EVERYBODY IS IRISH ON ST PADDY’S DAY! WE WERE ON FREMONT STREET DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS.
AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING ALONG ON THE LAS VEGAS CLUB PROJECT.
“SUNNY & 61”
TODAY’S OBJECTIVE WAS BRYCE CANYON NATIONAL PARK.
THE WEATHER IS KINDA LIKE GAMING. AT SOME POINT YOUR LUCK IS GOING TO RUN OUT! TODAY WAS THE DAY OUR SUMMER WEATHER RAN OUT. IT WAS 37 DEGREES AT 9AM WHEN WE ENTERED THE PARK AND THINGS WENT TO SHIT FROM THERE INCLUDING RAIN, SLEET AND SNOW!
AT 8500 FEET IN ALTITUDE AND RAIN, SLEET, AND SNOW, I SAID TO MIKEY, “WE NEED TO GET THE HELL OFF THIS MOUNTAIN !” A FEW HOURS LATER WE WERE BACK AT 2000 FEET, CHANGING INTO OUR SHORTS AND T-SHIRTS IN MESQUITE, NV.

WEEK #2 OF THE MIKEY ADVENTURE HAS US IN MESQUITE, NV FOR A WEEK. AFTER A DAY TO RECOUP AND SEARCH OUT A DIVE BAR, WE HEADED UP INTO UTAH. TODAY’S ADVENTURE HAD US AT ZION NATIONAL PARK.
AS YOU KNOW I LIKE TO CLOSE MY BLOG POSTS WITH THE TAG LINE, “SUNNY & 80”, BUT TODAY AT ZION IT WAS “SUNNY & 65”. THIS EVENING WE’RE AT THE FRONT DOOR OF BRYCE CANYON NATIONAL PARK AND THE OVERNIGHT LOW IS TO BE 33 DEGREES, WE DROVE BY SNOW BANKS THE LAST HALF HOUR.
WITH MARCH COMES THOUGHTS OF SPRING, AND MIKEY MAKES HIS ANNUAL TRIP TO NEVADA FOR SOME SUMMER WEATHER AND MARCH MADNESS. MIKE IS VISITING THREE WEEKS THIS YEAR SO WE SPENT THE FIRST WEEK IN LAUGHLIN.
