I know these photos aren’t really showing much of a "trip"…but I just wanted to give an idea of what the drive to Vegas was like. These 1st 2 photos were taken about 3pm(give or take an hour). Nothing like a little rain to slow things down.

It took about 7 hours to get there and just 3 and half to get back. Of course with scenes like the picture below showing how people in CA have no idea how to drive in the rain, it didn’t speed things up any.

You’ll have to excuse the photo quality..these were just snapped with the cell phone. And finally after escaping Flash Floods …this was the view coming up on the strip.

It was still nice to get away regardless of the weather. Most of the time I’m in Vegas I don’t really see the outside of the casino… so as long as it was dry inside, things were fine.

I wish I would have had a little more time to spend with my mom but I’ll be seeing her next week when I fly back to Michigan. That should be a fun trip…I’m trying to remember when it was I went back for a visit and I think it was about a year and half ago- I could be wrong. It just seems like a long time.

Anyway…I’m back home now and getting caught up.
