Last Saturday

 I decided to visit the arts district on a Last Saturday - nothing was open. Oh well, at least we have First Friday, when the crowds descend.

End Of Summer In Naked City

It's been a long, brutal summer and everyone's hair has wilted... I never understood if that mannequin is supposed to attract people to the strip club or keep them away.

Pool Party In Vegas

Daniel in Hebrew

Alas, no Prince Harry - he was half a mile up the road at another pool party.

Pool Party At The Palms

Difficult to take photos when a vodka brand is throwing a promotion - it would be rude to refuse - even the cell phones got drunk.

Downtown 3rd St Farmers Market

Vegas has a farmers' market? Every Friday from 9am to 2 pm in the old bus depot and it's not the only one. Now I have to recover from this dose of healthy eating.

High Roller - Biggest Ferris Wheel In The World

Shopping mall and walkway to the High Roller

7/12/12 - site of High Roller

8/12/12 - coming along nicely

The High Roller will be the biggest ferris wheel in the world, right behind the Flamingo, opening in 2013. They got the final building permit on 7/27/12 - I should watch how it's coming along. The base of the wheel is a little to the right of the bottom two photos - this view should be obscured this time next year.

Yoga Class At First Friday

If I ever get the urge to exercise (other than walking and swimming), please stop me - if it doesn't look right, it isn't.

CMSA: Shooting Whilst Riding

I went to the mounted cowboy shooting experience, just to remind myself that I do live in the Wild West - and that cowboys are handsome, even the young ones.

CMSA Championship At South Point

The Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association's Western U.S. Championship - they have their Olympics in London, we have ours - ours has better costumes and my ears are still ringing.
