Celebrating in Las Vegas

Peggy and I try to be in Las Vegas every year, usually as close to her birthday as possible. This year we will be in Vegas on her birthday because we are celebrating her 50th birthday! That’s right — she is joining me as a half-centurian!

I have a big trip planned for her this year. We are scheduled to see a couple of shows and we will add more while we are there depending on what looks good to her. We are starting with “Jersey Boys” tonight at Paris. Paris has built a theater in their hotel to host Broadway plays, and this is the one currently in residence. It is a cool trend in Las Vegas right now with specific hotels opening theaters to host specific shows. “Jersey Boys” is one of our favorites, despite the posted sign outside the theater warning that the show contains “authentic New Jersey language.” It’s an accurate sign. It’s also a great show.

I have another surprise for Peggy while we are there, but I am not going to write about it beforehand so it will remain a surprise. Suffice it to say, this is going to be a fun trip!

We traveled to Las Vegas today on Thanksgiving and will stay through the weekend. It is cold in Las Vegas this week, so it will add some realism to seeing all of the Christmas decorations. Peggy is the wind beneath my wings, but there was actually a little snow beneath our wings as we flew into Vegas today.

I’ll keep you posted on how it all goes. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
