Las Vegas

We arrived in Las Vegas and stayed off the strip. It seemed we were not in one of the safest areas but it was well lit and patrolled.

The night before we had stayed at another resort hotel just over the NV border because Ray was on the bike , night fell and it was very cold! We went to their casino but it wasn’t our cup of tea. Mostly slots.

We went to the casino next to our motel in Vegas. It was better than the first. Gambling is not my thing. This was Ray’s goal. He was happy with the gambling he did. No big winnings.

We took a ride down the strip on the bike. Lots of things to see including show girls dressed to the nines walking the strip. I took many pictures of the sights but the New York New York casino was amazing! The NYC skyline!

We saw the original Fremont Street sign but I didn’t get the whole thing.

Can you tell I’m in love with the mountains? We went to a Harley shop and loaded the bike for the remainder of the trip. This is northern Nevada heading for Utah.

I live in Mesquite TX so had to get a shot of Mesquite NV. You can really see the landscape change again.

This little oasis tucked away along the highway intrigued me.

We headed into the St George gorge. I was driving and at the mercy of Ray’s picture taking. I was white knuckle driving through all the twists and turns.

After three attempts at navigating a double roundabout we made it to Superior Threads. I got there 10 minutes til close but they stayed open a few minutes longer for me. They directed me to the fabric side where I had another hour to browse. The picture is of the side of the mountain where the store is nestled.

Here is a shot of St George as night fell. I loved southern Utah and can’t wait to return!

More from Utah later!
