Light Design Research...Yeah...that's what I will call it....research...

Hi Ho!
Me and the wife just got back from Las Vegas. Where I was conducting light design research....yeah...that's what I will call it....research....

We spent 3 nights in Sin City taking in the sights and playing Black Jack. We had a ton of fun. We had been trying to get away just by ourselves for the past year, but between her MBA, work, soccer games, and other kid activities we just couldn't swing it. Also, we hosted Thanksgiving at our house for both of our families last year and it was quite the event. I told me wife that if we were able to pull it off that I would take her to Vegas for Thanksgiving next year. Hey....a promise is a promise. So off we went.

More notable highlights of our Vegas trip:
1. The upgrade to the Jacuzzi Suite is well worth the cost!
2. Never hit a 15, when the dealer is showing a 3.
3. Riding on the "The Duece" bus in Vegas is slower than walking.
4. The Vegas Monorail system is pretty cool and fast.
5. Every casino/hotel has at least 4 Starbucks in it.
6. Do not play Black Jack until 4am the day you are leaving.
7. AmericaWest Airlines' employees are not as happy nor as friendly as SouthWest Airlines' employees.
8. The view from the top of the Stratosphere is amazing - there is a Starbucks up at the top too.
9. I wonder how much the street vendors that hand out the pornographic literature get paid.
10. What ever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas....hopefully...
