Lucky Tesh, to get saved from the dog and the tree.... I have a cat being chased by dogs story, but it doesn't end nearly so well... I think I'll keep that one to myself... Well, if I don't get to talk to you again before you leave... have a really fun trip.... and keep good notes so that you can tell us (almost ) all about it upon your return...(-:

I like Vegas. It's zany. Lotsa happy people, too; and fresh food. And cleavage. Lots and lots. And legs. And sinuous sinuousnesses. Yum yum. The last time I was there was just as they were finishing the light canopy over the downtown street. Didja see that at night? Sposed to be some new fountain too, I haven't seen, but the guys who designed it are Good. Good as me. (!) :o) My spouse likes Vegas too. Lots to do. Go see Valley of Fire, drive thru it during the day. Wow. It's 40 minutes east toward Utah. I have a bizarre Vegas story, but it would be hard to tell. It was cute. Of course you've seen the sea battle from up close at Treasure Island, the volcanoe from the lot at The Mirage and the Dolphins and the White Tigers? The sea battle is neat, from the hotel-end of the causeway. You might like it. Big theatre and explosions and a soaking wet macho pirate cast of swimmwers and the whole works go down good with a neat drink. It's good enough for grown-up kids. Some of the shows are sposed to be good. I'd see Penn and Teller if they were on. And some of the productions. But I'm not much on shows, unless it takes place on my lap. I just know, you will enjoy yourself and get plugged with something to write about. Oh, I just remembered something else...... Another story for later. Vegas isn't really a very naughty place. Naughty like 16-18, I spose, but not like 21. Besides I'm not sure most women know really how to be naughty. Not a mindset. It is funny some people think of Disneyland II like that. Wait ~ let me get a plane and meet you all there. I could be a footman and guide or something. :o)
