There was a convention in Las Vegas Nevada I was attending for work. It was right around the time when our youngest daughter was turning 21. Naturally, Jenna came up with the idea of going to Vegas for her 21st birthday. So her and a couple friends along with her brother Jack went to Las Vegas a couple days before we arrived. They go there Thursday and began the 4 day party. I purchased a party bus for them off Groupon for Friday night. Then we arrived on Saturday. This picture was taken right across the street from Mandalay Bay where the tragic concert shooting had taken place only 3 weeks prior to our trip. Someone had opened fire from the hotel on concertgoers and killed 58 and wounded 850. It was the most horrific mass killing in US history. Anyway the memorial around the Las Vegas sign was truly a moving experience. Walking around and seeing the tributes to each of those whom had lost there lives. You could see their faces and families. I didn't really get to spend much time with the younger folks. We went to old vegas one night. I taught Jenna to play blackjack. She does real well playing these days. Math major I guess.
