Fin City in Sin City


Being a long time parrot head (Jimmy Buffet fan)I was suprised to see a Margaritaville Casino in Las Vegas.


After asking around I was even more surprised to learn that Jimmy actually holds the gaming license and didn't just license his company name for use at the casino.


In true Jimmy fashion though, the bar was bigger than the casino and he had his regular Margaritaville Gift shop too.


I can't say that I'm a big gambler but I did like the uniforms at Jimmy's place!

We are almost finished with the main part of our move. Everything is here and we are unpacking and organizing so I should be able to get back to posting photos on a daily basis very soon. I got a message from Parker last week and he is on his fourth week of vacation, he has a tough life you know LOL, and should be home this weekend so I expect he will have lots of pictures of his own to post when he gets back.

Hang in there Val, I'll have some nice outdoor shots soon.

      28 days??? Now I'm jealous!! You better get to practicing with hubby's camera, I want to see some of those shots on your blog when you get back. Are you going to Moloka'i again?

      Maybe I'll put up a few more Hawaii photos before you go. :~)

      Take lots of memory cards with you and enjoy the island. A graduation luau, I didn't know they did such a thing but it sounds great!

      Locals love to party...our friends are GREAT cooks, in fact I'd say the best on the island. I will have to take shots of all the food that will be prepared. We're going to help "gather" the food...ie, we're going fishing!!

      You are welcome Sandy. It was a tough job but I figured I would just force myself for the good of the blog. LOL

      You have a good weekend too!

    Had no idea Mr. Buffet had an establishment in Sin City, looks like a fun place, big glass of Margureta too!

    Good to hear Parker will soon be posting pictures again.

    Val hope you have a great trip to Molokai! I'd really like to visit Molokai one day, it's on my bucket list...
