    I didn't see you go past but I love the cloud picture. We used to fly but don't anymore. I always loved looking down on the clouds and flying through them. Have a great vacation.

    What an unusual and interesting posting, Jerry. I believe that you are the only and first Stewbie to do this airborne posting (complete with pics, thank you very much!)

    I really enjoyed Las Vegas when I was there.
    I enjoyed the motels, the food and with 20 dollars, my partner and I played the slot machines all night long. As it was getting into the wee hours we would decide to take the winnings and go to bed, then one of would say...."Oh, sorry, I won again"!

    Have a good time, mate.

    BTW--will you be doing anything else on your holiday besides enjoying the pleasures of Las Vegas? I don't know how much time you have, but you could rent a car and drive over to Utah, New Mexico and Arizona for some of the most stunning natural beauty to be found anywhere in the world.

    Hi Jerry, Have a great time in Vegas. When you return, if you fly over Nebraska, you can tell because it will look brown and dusty;
    not pretty and green like it usuallly does this time of year.
    I will be the one with the pruners in somebody's garden.

    National parks around the world provide their visitors with a multitude of recreational activities. Zion National park in Utah is no exception. While Joyce and I enjoyed the fauna and flora on our hike along a river that cut through the park, my camera caught two adventurous climbers hundreds of feet up on a sheer rock face. Can you find them?

    Jerry, I have enlarged this photo. I have saved it to my puter and looked deeply into that beautiful rock but I can't find them. I have a good guess but it's probably wrong. They may be climbing up that flat surface on the right in the first pic, straight up and if it is, THEY ARE NUTS.....

    For those of you that have not located the two rock climbers:

    Rock Climbers ( photo / image / picture from Jerry Sullivan's Garden )

    The climber at the top is climbing while the one below stays secure until the upper climber has secured his/her position. We watched their slow progress for about 20 minutes.
