Always happy to see family, we took advantage of a few days off and drove over (in car only) to see daughter Mary and her family in Las Vegas. We stayed in rental cabin at Thousand Trails which was much more cost effective than driving rig over... wonderful to see them as always. Jason had never been there before so we walked our legs off visiting the various "shows" and hotels. The grandkids loved it and we loved seeing them. This is picture from Sam's Town where they have a waterfall show in afternoon.
Each year for the past 17 anyway, Jason and Mary's church puts on a "Freedom Celebration" as a way to have a church picnic; and give back to the community. This is a very costly endeavor however they find it is cost effective as the community comes out in droves - at no cost to them whatsover! Again, we worked the cotton candy booth and since there are so many volunteers we did have time off to view the other areas. A big favorite of course is the cake walk and watermelon eating contest. This year they even had their photographer flying a drone taking pictures of the event. Quite a deal and it's fun being able to join in the festivities.
