Hey guys, sorry I was MIA for a bit, last week Friday I headed out to Las Vegas to visit my brother, he's doing the Lion King stage show again for a year (or maybe more, depending on how well the show does). This was the first time I'd spent any amount of time in Vegas, I rather like the place actually :) I also got to go the Grand Canyon for the first time ever, that is an awe-inspiring place. I've never been anywhere else that made you feel so tiny and insignificant, and the vertigo I got toeing the edge of the canyon was kinda fun ;) Other trip highlights were touring around some of the casinos (I officially love The Luxor, that place is classy, and fun!). At first I thought the gimmicks each casino/hotel have would be annoying, but I got into them after awhile. The Knight Rider Festival also happened to be going on while I was there, so I spent Saturday geeking out amongst replica Kitts ;)
Random note about deserts: This seems like the obvious thing to say, but DAMN it's dry out there. I drank water continuously, and it never seemed to be enough, I was constantly thirsty the entire time. People who live out there, is that something you adapt to over time?
Anyway, photo time! The Knight Rider photos are posted to LJ here,

deviantART Aside from that...I'm sick, first cold I've had in many many months. Ugh. Stupid full planes! No, really, full flight out to Vegas, 7 days later bam! Cold. Probably not a coincidence. Gonna stay in bed today, drink hot tea and draw. And watch Knight Rider probably. I think I get even geekier when I'm sick...
