Mount Humphrey's - I miss you. I really love flagstaff. I think I could live there a again for a bit someday. It actually had not changed very much.


This was the first apartment that @jacob, myself and eventually @terry lived in. I was 15ft x 9ft.


And finally some pics fo Sedona - my favorite place to hike and climb around. Sedona has gown a lot and the roads have been redone. It also cost $5 for a parking pass now, but he pass is good anywhere in Sedona. Well accept for the pay places!

@terry and I climbed ot the top of one of the rock formations.
The one behind @terry here. Well not to the very top but around it.



Here we are looking off the part we climbed to. @matthew was so small at the bottom that I couldn't even get him in the pic.





I remember taking this pic and seeing him in it. But now I can't find him in it. The perspective is weird but I am tooking straight down from very high up.

I got a ocuple of family pics on vacation. I forgot my real camera so I took all of the pics from vacation with the iphone. It relaly only takes good photos in very optimal lighting conditions.

Here is @terry on his brother's trampoline with nephew Aiden.


Here are terry's cousins samantha and elizabeth posing with their fishing poles. I wish we had pictures of the fish we caught. Maybe @matthew has pictures on the boat.


This is @terry's sister Alex. She is very pretty, I wish I had a better picture than this one but somehow this is the only one I have. Once again, I am sure @matthew has more.


This is @terry's brother and sister in law in walmart. Hope @matthew has better pictures.


And here is the newest nephew - baby finnegan.


I am missing a lot of people and clear shots. I think @matthew has pics of everyone. Hoepfully he will post some or @terry will.

So @terry went to go pick up our tent at his brother's house while I
stayed with his mom at the casino to gamble.

At 7:50 I was supposed to meet them for a movie. Unfortunately, they
were late and I was near the star trek slots. There was actually a
line to use them because they were so popular so I decided to play the
nearby machine and wait for someone to leave. I sat at a $0.05
machine and put $5 in. Then I hit spin but the last person had 20
lines at $0.25 selected and within two seconds it was all freakin
gone. I was so made. Like I don't like losing but not even realizing
I was betting $5 on one spin sucked even more.

On a fishier not what kind of fish is that, in the back, that looks
like a mini whale.

I lost like $100 on these stupid slot machines. I think if I ever
gamble again it will be at an actual table against real people.

It was such a vicious cycle. I bet a little bit and lost so I kept
uping the bet figuring I would have to win a lot to compensate for my
loss. Thing is, I never won. The bonus rounds on the newer machines
are so addictive.

In the future I would rather spend money on more fancy food and more
bacon choclate, LOL.

We went to this pancake house that had redic size pancakes. Everything is so over the top in vegas.

I think the most outrageous moment was walking down the strip, watching a country singer singing, "I am proud to be an American" on a stage while mexiskins handed me those porn cards to order prostitutes, all in an outdoor air conditioned area in 100+ degree weather and while drinking margaritta from a glass bottle in public.

Who air-conditions outside? Imagine if the casinos in Niagara Falls had outdoor heating in the winter.

I really love Caesar's palace. I felt the same way all the other times I was in vegas. If I come back, I want to stay here.

If only the technology was as fancy as the case ;(

Some of the most fashionable high end stores have the fugiest clothes. Is that middle outfit inspired by batman or what.

Butt they sell it at the venetian in Las Vegas. Small peices the size
of a golf ball cost more than $1,000 and the big ones are like $50,000
to $100,000 -so I guess they are real.

I finally made it to one of the Vosges Haut Chocolat flagship stores
in an effort to get @mike the bacon chocolat. I just hope it doesn't
melt in the hot las vegasness.
