Sorry to leave you all hanging in suspense yesterday. We did our usual up before dawn and decided to hop in the car and drive to Hoover Dam. Well, that took no time at all and of course, it wasn’t open yet, so we decided to drive on to the Grand Canyon.

Oh my! Was that ever something to behold. There just are not words adequate to describe the feeling you get when looking at something that magnificent. I did take tons of photos, but still don’t have a USB cord for the camera, so haven’t been able to pull any off of it to post. You may have to wait until we get back home for photos — sorry!

I can get you to the Graceland photos though — click HERE and type in the user name of Graceland and the password is KMNOR The ceremony itself was both sweet and corny. We had a blast and the DVD will show it all.

Last night we attended the Elton John concert. Another WOW event! Although he can’t hit the high notes anymore, he can still sing and of course, play that piano. The concert was pretty cool as he used a combination of videos and stage props to make it a visual as well as audible performance. There were a lot of blow-up things from huge roses that danced to the beat of the music to a pair of crossed legs complete with spike platform heels to a pair of women’s breasts suspended from the ceiling. It was bizarre, yet cool. For Pinball Wizard, they dropped beach-ball sized balloons from the ceiling which the audience bounced from person to person like volleyball until the air currents drove them onstage where they drifted for the remainder of the concert. Some of the videos were above me, but one was of Vegas sights and actually had Graceland chapel and “our” Elvis in it. That was especially cool.

Tonight it’s Penn and Teller and I imagine that will be an outstanding event as well. Of course you will hear all about it if you stay tuned.

Love to all,

Margaret
