We went to Vegas this past weekend to see Garth Brooks. We left Thursday morning and met my aunt and cousins from Arizona there. Thursday night we went to see Carrot Top, who turned out to be surprisingly very funny. I'd go see him again. Friday, Jay drove from Utah with Chloe to hang out with us during the day. We went to Bass Pro Shops and looked at all the animals. Then we met up with my cousins and walked around Caesar's Palace. We saw that Pete Rose was doing a signing, and there was no one in line, so we asked if we could take a picture with him. He said yes, but didn't even stand up or anything like that. He should be a little nicer since we were there for 15 minutes and no one else even came up to him. He's old news, and should realize it. Anyway, after that we headed over to the Wynn to get out tix for Garth Brooks! The concert was at 8, so we wandered that casino for a bit. It's very fancy shmancy.
The Garth concert was AMAZING!!! It was a very small venue and just him and his guitar. He interacted with the audience throughout the show, even taking requests. He just played whatever he felt like playing. Then Trisha Yearwood came out and they did their song together, and then she sang some of her songs while he accompanied her on the guitar. Then because it was a Friday night and there was no second show, he played an extra 45 minutes for us. All in all, it was one of the best concerts I've been too.
Saturday morning we left Vegas, and headed to Utah. We went to this little town near Zion Canyon and walked around and did a litte shopping. On the way back to my brother's, we stopped at this abandoned ghost town. It was a mile or two down this dirt road, in the middle of nowhere, and it was almost dark so it was a little creepy. We checked out the cemetary, which was a little strange since there were mounds were the bodies were, like they weren't buried deep enough or something. Then we climbed over the fence and checked out the inside of the houses. They were dark, and a little scary.
Sunday, we just played at my brother's house and then went and got Coldstones. Monday morning we headed home.
Here's some pics....
