Hoover Dam aka Boulder Dam

Heres aview of the extension road going on over the dam. I just love all the ropes hanging on

The white water mark shows just how much the water has come down. I hate the drought just think of all the little animals that need this wate,

I remember a few yars back I was here when they had to open the extra water way because there was too much water. Now I wish there was too much now

I love this statue I think it homors all the workers who worked on the dam all there years. Everytime I drive by I take his pic!

So close but yet so far to do:)

In memory of Fifi...

Heres some of the memories I have of my Fifi. She passed Friday July 3rd at 9:45 pm peacefully.

She had finished her dinner of meatloaf and mashed potatoes with a little veggies. And then she relaxed in her cubie and got something to drink then passed away gently into the heaven with all my other dogs that have gone on before me. I like to think that when I go that they will all be there waiting for me to play with them all. I know that God didnt give me these wonderful pets here on earth but that He plans on having them there so when I arrive I will have all that love they give.

Update: I went to bed at 4 am because I was thinking of Fifi and Im up at 9 am because Im thinking of Fifi. Im deeply saddened by her passing and I really need Jesus right now! Oh how sad my life will be without my friend Fifi in it. Thanks for all your cares and prayers for me my friends, I do covet them truely I do.

35th Wedding Anniversary

HI there June 8th was Terry and mine anniversary and our chitlins Abbea and Shawn paid for us a little rest at the Palazzo Hotel and Casino next to the Venitian. On the strip. Isnt it beautiful? Terry and I had a fantastic time. We arrived on Sunday the 7th and we ate at a really cool mexican returant and then the kids paid for us to see the Jersey Boys Show. It was fantastic I loved it. Thats why your listening to Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons

This here is a pic of our suite. There was three tvs in this room. One in the bedroom and the others in the living room and then the bathroom. Where I bought down in the shop called Basin White bath balls to soak in. Great!

I decided to be a tourist so I took a few pics of the strip:)


Heres the pic of the lobby there was umbrellas everywhere.

Another view of the umbrellas in the lobby. They were so awe inpiring.

Ive been busy making afghans and booties because everyone wants booties right now:) Abbea gave me 60.00 dollars to buy yarn to make her booties and boy did I have fun buying yarn. I bought cotton and regular yarns that were on sale at JoAnns plus I got 10% coupon so I had fun!

I love buying and touching and playing in yarn can you tell?

Ok enjoy the music and have a great day...

Happy Fathers day! Enjoy your day...

Heres one of the walls that was decorated in homey stuff. You can see the chair legs up because we didnt show up till almost closing. Sorry!

This is Diane she is one of the owners of Moms Diner and she does most of the work I think!

Im writing this on Friday the week after I was first there. Today I drove to Pahrump with Sherry so she can see what all the talk was about. We had a great time. I had the most wonderful meatloaf the first visit then I had clam chowder the second visit. It was great! Di made fresh coconut pie and Sherry had the lemon cream cheese. I must say the pie was fantastic!

SO if you ever find yourself driving through Pahrump Nevada stop by and say Sherri sent you they might just let you stay and eat anyways:) haha
