The Lights Of Vegas

Wow, driving over the hill just outside of Henderson at night is something. Everything is reasonably dark, then is a huge sea of lights of Henderson and Las Vegas beyond.

It's the first time I've driven into Vegas at night, and it's really a sight to behold.

The Open Road

Just drove through Wickenburg, which looked like a pretty cool place, though a pretty much a ghost town at 8pm.

It's about 8:30 now, and it's impressive how pitch black it is behind us, but there is still some light across the horizon in front of us (to the north west).

Anyways, it's our first road trip outside of moving the Arizona in quite a while. Not that moving to Arizona itself wasn't technically a long while ago at this point. It's pretty nice to be out on the open road. And it's the first time I've really gotten to road trip with the netbook - which I must say is pretty sweet. While I like the Dell for any grunt work, but for blogging on the road, the netbook is a hell of a lot more comfortable than my lug of a laptop.

Photobox ImageDriving west towards Vegas just out of Surprise, with a huge storm off to the right and the most amazing sunset that we're driving towards, of course with the saguaro silhouette lining the road, it's hard not to be in complete awe of this desert of ours. We surely do live in the most beautiful place on earth.

Okay, bags are packed and ready to go - once Katie gets home, we're off Vegas for the weekend! We're both really looking forward to it. And it's going to be great to see Chris.

Something Like Cold

Wow. Okay, it's probably not worthy of quoting Plymouth Manor actually, but I'm surprised that it's so nice out today. Y'know, when you're living in Phoenix in the summer, around 30 degrees is nice!

May just turn off the AC. Fancy that!
