105 today in the shade on our patio....so we booked a Vegas trip for August to go cool off.

Have 4 nights booked at the Wynn @ $109/nite, but might switch to the TI for $69/nite & get two free Mystere tickets.

What dates in August?

Way to go, Sco.
It's 5C here this morning so we're going in late July to actually see what a hot summer is all about.

Guess Sco is ignoring me - oh well.

Chmie, hope you do better this trip gambling wise. You always stay downtown right?
Have a good time.

I am a wimp will stay far away from Vegas in the summer. It gets above 80 and I'm not a happy camper, don't do heat well.

But hope all you going enjoy yourselves.

I'm sure you will really cool off in Vegas in August I'm not great with heat either and other than one time going in the summer we have now settled on April and/or October for our Vegas trips. Perfect weather there that time of year.

Yup, always at Fitzgeralds since we are treated really well for minnows.
This time we plan on driving home thru Death Valley, Reno and the Oregon coast just for a change.

Ennajean & Bonnie, nice & cool in the casinos! In fact I usually have to wear a sweater or flannel shirt when gambling.

Chmie, I'm planning a trip to Vegas after my Chicago trip - probably early August. However I'm a "strip snob", haven't been downtown for over 10 years. But if our trips ever coincided I would hop a taxi down there to meet you, you make me laugh alot on the board with your witty posts.

That would be great, VL.
Witty ? How come no one ever takes me seriously ?

No I ain't, Sweetheart.

Sometimes it's easy to forget where I've posted stuff.

We're booked August 24th - four nights. Haven't made flight reservations yet.
Still thinking about the TI deal.

I do. There is great wisdom cloaked in your witticisms.

I went last August. Stayed inside from noon to sunset and was fine with the heat.

About the only time we venture outside in Vegas during August is to get to the rent car.

However, I notice Dollar's rates for our dates are more than double what we paid in January.

It's hot where your gums are flappin.

Period.

Am gonna cancel the Vegas trip...and book one to Disney World or maybe Seattle.

Ha ha!!

Thiis is both good and baed. It is good for Chriis's job security but wth the wa stuff iis gomg on at my housee i9t would be better 9if he were home more rght now. Well yoj can't have everthing and at least he has a good job.\\\KKM
