Making a Deal in Las Vegas

This weekend I had the opportunity to go to Vegas with some members of my family. We loaded up the car on Saturday and drove about six hours to the city of lights. I had forgotten how crazy you can go with nothing to do for that long (especially since we were leaving the next day), but the naps were nice. The city is so beautiful when you first drive in. The lights and buildings are all so exciting and different. I have to admit that I was a little surprised when I discovered that we would be staying in the new Hooters Hotel (which is actually very nice). I am now using the amazing word "Hooterific" which was on one of their posters (they might want to rethink their advertising approach). Why did we drive down to Vegas for less than a 24 hour stay you might ask? There is only one answer to that question: "Let's Make A Deal!". Who wouldn't drive over 300 miles for an opportunity to have that much fun? (some of you might answer that you wouldn't but I'm sorry to say that isn't the point). Although we weren't chosen to be contestants this time, my family and I were only TV practically the entire time. I have never had so much fun making overly dramatic, cheesy faces. Especially since so many people get to see them on their Television screen in the near future. Wayne Brady has to be one of my longtime heroes. Just in case you were wondering, he is nicer than he seems on TV. This was such an awesome opportunity, especially since it took one crucial item off of my "Bucket List". One down, so many more to go.
