"I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints."
— Billy Joel

Good morning from Las Vegas! Another fantastic day, beautiful weather, and let me tell you, Billy Joel at 72 might have put on the best show of my life. We had swanky tickets with our bathroom, food, and beverage, one of my favorite nights of my marriage. I've never been a fan of Vegas between you and me, but it's been a great trip; we expect to come back for more shows. 

I did put $30.00 in a machine; I had no idea what I was doing; 5 minutes later, it's gone, I won't gamble again, I work hard for my scratch, plus I'm much rather be walking than sitting in a smoke-filled darkened room. We did ten miles on our human hoofs yesterday; I'm feeling a little amazing.

My first trip to vegas occurred in my 20s, and I think day two was a wash; as an old guy, I know how to manage my food and drink and arrive home fresh-minded and wake feeling great. So we are going to walk to Tom's and get brunch, then walk the city, we extended our check out to 3:00, we will head to the airport and hang out for a couple of hours, we will be home by 7:00, condo tonight, back to the mountain house to pick up PVHT Monday afternoon.

We are listening to Billy this morning; man, what a great show! Who was better? Metallica or Billy? To compare the two shows would be to compare a cheese pizza and a nice piece of basa fish. They are both great but different. I will say two of the greatest shows I've attended, and I've been to a few shows.

My wife is asking me to wrap it up; she wants to brunch and walk! Come on, lover (she calls me lover), let's go! We are in Vegas! I'm sorry, love (I call her love). I commit to doing this daily soup! That's it; I hope your life is filled with adventure, treasure, and memories that will flash by your eyes right before you depart to the other side. We are just building memories enjoying life, and I encourage you to do the same. Live RFN.
