We got to see Guster, Jurassic 5, Ben Folds, The Keller Williams Incident, Phil & Trey, Tom Petty, G. Love, Damien Jr. Gong Marley (Bob Marley's son), and The Killers at Vegoose. They were all GREAT! Here is J5:
The best was Widespread Panic's night show at MGM. They played for hours and there were a lot of interesting people in interesting Halloween costumes.
Here is Mike with Walter (from the Big Lebowski):
We broke even in the casinos...if you count the $20 bill Mike found on the floor. We mostly stuck to the quarter slots, which were readily available where ever you went, including the airport terminals.
We rented a car on Monday to drive to the Grand Canyon, which the lady at the hotel counter said was an hour and a half drive. Two and a half hours later we stopped at an information center along the highway and were advised that we were still three and a half hours away.
We settled on driving through Zion National Park, which was a tease. We barely had an hour to drive through what we would have liked to explore for at least a week or two. We will have to go back for a camping vacation.
Here are some pictures of the trip:
