The SouthWestern States Tour

Aug. 20, 2007 was the start of our 6 State-SouthWestern States Tour - A "Fabulous" Celebration of Travel, Business and Pleasure. A 5,000 mile journey included the States of Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada and Tennessee. Our "going to" destinations were to Little Rock, Arkansas; Albuquerque, New Mexico and Las Vegas, Nevada. On the return trip we went to Albuquerque, New Mexico; Sante Fe, New Mexico; Little Rock, Arkansas and Nashville, Tennessee. My first trip through the SouthWestern States proved to be very Exciting, Beautiful and Surprising - Expecting to see mostly bare, desert conditions, but to my surprise viewed Beautiful Landscapes of Mountains, Lakes, Tremendous Pastures, and some desert like conditions. We hope you enjoy the View as we did....

Our First Stop - Little Rock !

March of the Peabody Ducks !

Every morning these "Classy Ducks" ride down the Elevator from their Penthouse Suite to partake in the Peabody Hotel "March of the Ducks"... That long ride down is well worth it for this group - as they stride along with their tails wagging back and forth, walking the Red Carpet just like Models, Stars in their own right, to the Peabody Fountain where they delight themselves with a Gourmet Brunch... This is their home for the rest of the afternoon as they splish-splash enjoying and having a good time. Come 5PM, they do the Peabody Walk back to the Elevator and up to the Penthouse Suite to relax, dine and rest, after a long days work !

Celine Dion at Caesar's !

A very special occassion was being able to see the "Sensational" Celine Dion perform at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas - a Birthday Treat to myself ! And what a Presentation this Lady does - an Hour and a half of Non-Stop Entertainment... With a tremndous cast of Dancers, Singers and Musicians, as well as a huge array of Technical Staff behind the scenes, made this one of the best performances I have seen ! Her Performance at Caesars ends December 2007 - She then goes on a Two Year World Tour !
