In and out in under 48 hours, in my opinion that's the perfect time frame for Vegas. We took my parents to the Las Vegas Bowl (Utah vs. Boise State) for their Christmas present from all the kids. Jim and Melissa, Rick and Ashley, Quent and myself joined my parents on the trip. We stayed at the Rio, hit up the famous Las Vegas Strip, a couple of buffets and of course the Coke store. What more could you want? Well a big ol' win over Boise State would have been the icing on the cake. But you can't have everything right? The game was not so good but the rain let up so we weren't soaked. A bit muddy walking through the parking lot but dry. The forecast was for rain all day Tuesday, all day Wednesday and was supposed to clear up on Thursday. Lucky for us it stopped raining cats and dogs around 3 p.m. and sprinkled a little bit at kick-off at 5 p.m. the rest of the game was dry.
Thursday we stopped at the Paris Casino for breakfast and then it was go time. Due to some road repair work from flash flooding in southern Utah we were delayed a bit coming home. All-in-all a successful trip!
Here are a couple of pictures from the trip.

Quent might be a True Blue Aggie, but he sure does look good in Utah Red!
