Friday I arrived in Las Vegas, where it was hot and dry. It was good to be back in a desert climate, I've missed being in Palm Springs. The East Coast has been warm, but oh the humidity, how it wipes me out. I had some pesky business stuff to attend to, so I was busy all day with that, but by 6:00 I was ready to relax and soak up some Las Vegas fun. While walking on the strip, I ran into this lovely showgirl, who was standing in front of Bally's hotel and casino. At first glance, she seemed out of place, but then again I remembered, it's Vegas, Baby! Naturally being a ham, I couldn't resist a photo opportunity. This just screams Las Vegas to me!The Grand Canyon

Above: After walking around in the hot dry sun, we stopped off at an outdoor bar in front of Harrah's. It was a wild place. They were pouring shots directly into people's mouth to thirsty and willing customers. The music was blaring loud and I was shouting over the music to have a normal conversation, but it was fun.
Above: The bartenders did all sorts of crazy tricks while serving. Here he was pouring 9 drinks at once. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME KIDS! I'm in Vegas for another two days...so Rick's Roadshow continues...
