It is 11:30 at night and the temp is 91 degrees. The weather man just said this is the 124th day in a row with no measureable rain. Tomorrow's high is to be 108.

We went to Red Rock Casino this morning for breakfast, or should I say we tried to. They have a great breakfast buffet but the line was at least 45 mnutes long. The casino has some kind of special deal for seniors, (we found out after we got there), and we all know that we seniors will drive 200 miles for a free doughnut! So, ee left there and went to Sweet Tomatoes for lunch. It was delicious. I wish Evansville had one of those. The closest one I know of to Evansville is in Webster Grove. MO close to Eden Seminary.

This afternoon we came back to the hotel relaxed for awhile. Then this evening we went to In and Out Burger for supper. That is ānother franchise I wish we had in Evansville. They remind me of Five Guys. We like it because it is clean and the service is great.

We counted it up today and realized that it has been 15 years since were lived here and this city has grown so much. Mega-resorts and condo complexes drape Las Vegas Blvd now. One of the most tourist friendly things they have done is to build cross over bridges for the pedestrians and fences along the sidewalks to help cut down on pedestrians being hit by cars on the blvd. But, foor someone who has not been to Vegas in the last two decades; they would be totally lost. That's my justification for ccoming at least twice a year.

Time to drop off and hit the bed. Tomorrow we move to the Treasure Island Hotel for three days. Since it is only a block down the street, it won't be much of a change of scenery. It is now just called "TI". I also see they are makng major changes to it too. It will be interesting to see what they are doing.

So, I must of course close my blog with my thanks to God for his continued care of those I love. I hope you have a blessed day tomorrow.
