Sunday April 20th, 2008

This morning we got up and just relaxed and enjoyed a good cup of coffee. Barb is trying to teach me the right portions so that I can have the coffee ready when she gets back from her walk. The first time I made it, it was extremely week, but that turned out to be that the filter had gotten pushed over and the water had not all gone through the grounds. She said I did OK this morning.

After a light breakfast, we headed south back towards Las Vegas making our second attempt to go to the Red Rock Canyon with hope of maybe seeing some of the wild burros. We had stopped into Old Nevada Mining Town the last time we were here to look around and catch a bite to eat. Since we had heard that some of the melodrama shows were good, we decided to stop and take another look We were there for about an hour and a half and sat through two shows, but then decided it was time to move on. By this time things were pretty hazy from all the wind blown dust that even though we were on five miles from the canyon, the picture taking probably wouldn't be that good, so we just returned to the resort and started working on getting things ready to leave town in the morning.

There was the weekly potluck again at 5 PM today. Barb had already baked a cake before we left, so we just relaxed a bit before heading over. This gave us an opportunity to say goodbye to some of our new friends, as we will be pulling out before most of them are up in the morning. It's always fun to meet new friends and then it is a sad time when we have to leave.

Tomorrow we will start the trek home and hopefully will not have to deal with the snow too much.
