This past Saturday we drove through the desolate California and Nevada desert to Las Vegas. There we spend the day searching for a suitable place to call home for the next 3 months. We braved the 113 degree temperatures and were successful in our quest. For those of you who have the Vegas itch (between now and October 21st), please come out for a visit - we will have plenty of room. On our way to Vegas we drove by the west coast start of I-40, we couldn't help but to make a slight detour to see if there was actually a "Wilmington, NC 2,554 miles" sign on the interstate we called home for the better part of 6 days in December. I (Tim) was beyond excited to see that California took the time and money to erect a sign signifying the beginning of the interstate as North Carolina did. For some reason, seeing that sign really made our cross country journey feel complete.
Tomorrow is our last day of work at our assignments here in Southern California. We will be sad to be leaving this great area, but we will definitely not miss the L.A. traffic that we have to deal with wherever we go any time of day.
Saturday morning we fly out to Tampa for our annual beach week at Treasure Island. As soon as we return we will pack up our belongings and move in to our place in Las Vegas. Luckily we don't have far to go as Vegas is only a 4 hour drive away.
We will post an update as soon as we get settled in Las Vegas. We look forward to our experience in Sin City.
