Deep Thoughts by Alex and Mommy

If a jackpot is won in a casino, does the bear still $h!t in the woods or does he rent the penthouse suite at Bellagio?

We are now 5 days away from our trip to Vegas. Bob and I are going with our friends Denise and Scott. Our flight leaves on Wednesday, June 25th at 7am. We are staying at Bally's. Bobber and I have comped rooms. Thursday we are planning to rent a car and drive to Primm. Primm is right on the Nevada/California border. Denise is interested in shopping at the Primm Outlet Mall. I have heard mixed reviews for this area and am more excited to go into California than the shopping portion of the day. After Primm, we are going to Green Valley Ranch. Bob and I have tried, unsuccessfully, several times to catch the shuttle from Mandalay Bay to GVR. Other than that, we really don't have any set plans. Bob and I have talked about maybe going to Phantom. Not sure on that either. I guess it's also my mission to get Bobber drunk this year. He wants to go get a High Octane drink at the bar in from of Imperial Palace when we first arrive.

On the Alex front.......
She has finished and passed her level two swim class. Or as she says she will now be in third grade swimming with the big kids.

Swimming Lessons

Alex started her swimming lessons this week. Her friend, Maddy, is also in the class. They are both doing a great job. Here are some pictures from tonight.
