I've always been a firm believer in maintaining a bucket list. (Separate post to come.) Getting to Las Vegas some day was in the top ten. So, when we got the chance to go to the land of bright lights, glitz, and glamour for my brother-in-law's birthday celebration, I jumped at the chance. A bonus (for me) was that fact that we would be flying. I adore flying. The hubby, not so much. Let's just say, we've been back a week, and I think he finally unclenched yesterday. He's a landlubber, that one.
Lady Luck did not smile on us, but she did smile on a lady playing slots next to us, to the tune of $6,400.00. So close, but no cigar. I asked her to rub my arm for good luck, still no.
