Memorial Day Vegas style


Post pandemic Memorial Day was struggling to get back to more normality. Apparently, the strip was packed! At midnight on Fremont Street, all Covid restrictions were withdrawn, and the live music started on 3 stages! However, not all the Californians who came for the three-day weekend stayed for the music. I-15 at the California state lines is a testament.


Our Memorial Day was far more serene. We didn’t even try to weather the 7 ½ hour lines trying to cross the border outside Tijuana. We also didn’t try to weather the 2 ½ average wait times for a shuttle at Zion National Park. We watched Roger Federer win his first round Roland Garros match, and the series finally of Mare of Easttown. But our overall favorite was when I went out after dark to see if the hot tub lights were working – I’ve only been in the tub during the day, so since they are subtle, I could not tell if they were working. When the Woman exclaimed “woooo!”, I looked out on the valley. We stood there and took in Memorial Day Vegas style. Awesome!

Talk to you soon.
