we had a good visit to las vegas, again. our neighbors took us to help celebrate our 55th wedding anniversary. (look at what room we got at the mirage). the whole trip was a gift from them.
las vegas was all decked out for christmas, as if it could have any more lights.
our friends frank and linda.
and speaking of lights we took the night tour of the neon museum. they are doing so much to restore and preserve these old signs. it takes so much money though
the restored lobby of the la concha hotel is the office of the museum now.
this sign was very pretty.
we drove around downtown to see the remaining neon lights being used today. there’s only seven or eight. this one is from the hacienda where the infamous mandalay bay is now. we stayed there on our very first trip to vegas in the sixties.
while walking over the bridge to cross the street i took a picture. this is vegas baby.
on our trip we also saw the show ‘love’, went to red rock canyon, and visited the dolphin exhibit at the mirage. oh and the mob museum and ate at mon ami gabi.
stay tuned
Once in awhile-now and again-this is us 
Jill and Jerry, you are an inspiration of devotion, love and neighborhood sociability. You make friends everywhere you go because of who you are. Congratulations on your anniversary and thanks for the blog.
Happy 55th. It doesn’t seem like you should be 55 years old! Time goes by quickly. So glad you have each other to spend that time with. That was a very special touch to get you that room number. I’m in Vegas now but haven’t done any touristy things – just with family. Thanks for the pictures. LvU
I love the wonderful picture of Frank and Linda. Christmas time is stunning in Vegas. Neon, where all the lights are bright and beautiful. Glad you got to enjoy them.
