Yesterday it tried to get a posting out using my I touch. I’m still working on that but it seems the I touch can download lots but uploading, not so easy.
Anyway here is what I was trying to post yesterday.
We are at the La Quinta, Ontario. After saying goodbye to Teri’s mom and the Taillon family, we hit the RV show at the LA County Fairgrounds in Pomona. We feel like we learned a lot (in addition to the fact that RV salesmen are currently very hungry) and will review the brochures tonight. If we don’t see a need to revisit, we’ll head out for Vegas tomorrow. There might be a side trip but we don’t know where to yet.
Either way, it will be “so long Calif”, hope to be back real soon. Right!
5PM
We are in Vegas. Let me take this opportunity to say this is like LA with cigarette smoke. We are at the Imperial Palace. It is neither. In the brief (2hrs) time it took us to stand in line for check in and make two trips to the car (each involving 3 elevator hops and a short walk) I managed to acquire the smell of an diseased yak with a three pack-a-day habit.
We finally get settled in the room so I check out the WiFi. $7 an hour or $10 a day. This is getting ridiculous. Ryan is in a nice hotel, so maybe there?
Oh yah! We are at Ryan's suite at the Palazzo. Three TV's counting the one in the bathroom, ect. So here is my post on his comp'd WiFi.
