All You Need Is...........................
......................money, and lots of it. It was our industry's first trip to Las Vegas for the AHR Expo and the exhibitors were pleased with the turnout. This is a healthy sign for our industry.
While there we had some fun at night, went to the Beatles' Love Monday night and really enjoyed it. This was TAR's first Cirque du Soleil show and she was impressed. We noticed everyone of all ages in the lobby keeping the beat and singing along as we waited to go in. Great show, probably worth the trip if you are a Beatles fan.
Wednesday night we went to the Phantom of the Opera, 10 rows back center stage. We've seen it several times but it was really neat to see it in a theater built especially for this one play. And once again he tried hard but didn't get the girl. Great special effects
And what would Las Vegas be without Elvis? These gentlemen used this as their "attire" for their AHR booth. Remind me at our next show to not use this; I wouldn't want to infringe on their inspired idea. This was one night in a bar and they were having a lot of fun.
Nice fountain in the third floor of our suite. The Mirage hotel was nice, but we were both surprised at how the lingering odor of cigarette smell was in all of the hotels we visited. Guess this is about the only place you can still smoke. Saturday night TAR asked "are they open on Sundays?" Oh, this is the lobby, not our room.
SWMBO, a big jug, and our old friend Jack Vanacore. If we win the Tabasco, try to act surprised if your birthday is April 20. No, not you Mr. Hitler, the other one...........
Go ahead and insert caption here for this one. I still can't figure out who this goofball is, but I'll be that bike will do over 150; just not with me on it. Pretty bike, I offered a $1,000,000 purchase order for it; now what am I going to do with 50,000 pressure sensors?

Looks like I'll be in town all of next week
