Well, we are finally back home again after our week of play in Las Vegas. I have to admit that I am glad to be here despite the mountain of laundry and clean up that had to be done.

I have downloaded all my photos and just finished making adjustments to them. I’m going to put them in albums so you can see them better than trying to put them all into posts.

The first album is photos of the Grand Canyon. My camera has some kind of blue tint to it — no doubt because of some white balance adjustment I made to it for indoor photos — anyway some of the pictures look decidedly blue. They are kind of pretty in a way, but you’ll see for yourself. Others I made a color adjustment to so they look more natural except the sky in some is weird. Oh well, I’ll learn all this photography stuff one day.

The second album is of sights around Las Vegas. The include some of the statues in front of Caesar’s Palace and the fountain in front of the Bellagio. The moon hanging next to the Eiffel Tower which is in front of Paris.

The third album is photos of Hoover Dam. What a monument to the men and women who worked and built this edifice which provides electricity to this day to thousands of people and businesses in the Southwest!

And lastly, is the real treat. The Bellagio Hotel has a lovely pond with a fountain in it. This is a very special fountain because it dances! Every half hour from 7PM until midnight, the fountain dances to different tunes. We taped one of the tunes and have uploaded the video to YouTube. I sure hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Love to all,

Margaret
