Vegas
I just decided just recently that I’m going to Las Vegas this weekend. There is an Ultimate Tournament (flat plastic discs) there and MSU is taking a team. Mapquest says its 850 miles from Bozeman. We’re leaving Thursday morning. It will be an interesting drive, through Utah and Nevada, basically all new ground for me, which is exciting and one of the main reasons why I’m going. I’ve been through Utah a couple times but have not traveled this route exactly. I believe I’ll be the first Sulock in Vegas. (At least in our immediate family).
I go to Vegas with a mixture of excitement and fear for what I’ll encounter there, other than some warmer weather. At the very least it will be a learning experience. Right now I associate Vegas with lights, buffets, and gambling (although not necessarily in that order). I have gotten a little ahead as far as school is concerned, but the beginning of next week will still be challenging. You can’t miss four days around here without paying the consequences. But I will deal with that Monday.
Hopefully when I come back I’ll have some interesting pictures and some insight into one of Elvis’ favorite cities. I hope everyone is doing well.
p.s. I’m glad that the Tar Heels managed to pull out that win against Coach K and the rest of his cronies.
I am really looking forward to your report. I think in Stephen King’s The Stand Las Vegas was destroyed by an atomic bomb. Safe travels!!
I would be very interested in hearing your impressions of Vegas. Too bad you won’t be able to tell us anything, because “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”
Gary and I have been there, but you don’t know that because I couldn’t tell you…
Too late to tell you to be sure to get to outlying areas, like the Boulder Dam, Lake Powell and the “mountains” to the northwest of Vegas. All of which are far more intriguing than Las Vegas city.
We expect a photolog of your travels, please!
It is nice to know that you can’t miss four days without consequences. A sign of a solid program
Go Heels!!
Did you meet the trashcan man in Vegas? Oh and despite the outcome in Durham…..Go Duke!!!
