Vegas

Spent the last 3 days in Vegas for my buddy Aaron's bachelor party. I went in on Thursday night, a day before all the rest of the guys got there so I could hang out with my Dad. We pulled an all nighter at the Poker room at the Wynn. We got there like midnight and the next thing I knew, we had played poker all night long and it was 11am. It was fun! Then we got a nice free breakfast buffet, Pops went home to sleep and I went to the Hard Rock to meet up with Tiffany Brown, the Las Vegas Sun's newest photographer, who used to be in Corvallis. We had a great time talking shop, getting some food and then we took a nice little self guided tour around the sweet sweet hard rock pool. Man, that thing is awesome. I mean, there are blackjack tables IN THE POOL. I don't thinnk it gets any better than that. Here is a photo Tiffany shot at the pool. I can' wait to go back to that place. After that I went and checked into our Suite at the Venetian and crashed for a few hours before all my buddy's got there. Then we got some food, gambled a bit more and then Mike and I pulled another all nighter playing poker at the Venetian. Started around 3am and next thing we knew, it was 11:30am. Needless to say, I slept 5 hours since Thursday and I was a little tired when I got home at 3:30 this morning after my flight was delayed going back to Portland. Viva Las Vegas!
