On Monday Ted and Stach drove over to Hoover Dam. They crossed the new bridge over to Arizona and then drove over the old bridge. They were surprised that there was no view from the new bridge because of the high sides. They took a look around the dam and then headed into Boulder for lunch.
Meanwhile, Jeri and I went to the nail place where I had a wonderful pedicure and Jeri got her nails done. We then went over to the Sunset Station Casino for lunch and some gambling time. We met the guys back at the hotel for dinner.
Yesterday we drove over to the strip (our RV campground is out on Boulder Highway about 15 mins. from the strip). We thought we were stopping at the Venetian but it was their counterpart the Palazzo Hotel. We were trying to see the "Winter Wonderland" at the Venetian but enjoyed seeing the Palazzo. They have a pretty lobby complete with elves! Stach found a cool Sports Bar with couches and pillows and lots of big screen tv's so he was happy watching sports while we were gambling. I came out a big winner and had lots of fun. Jeri and Ted didn't do too badly either.

Ted and I came back and picked up Max to take him to the Vet. He had started limping and at first we thought he just slept on his back leg wrong but it didn't get better after a couple of days so took him in yesterday. His knee had a small tear in one of the muscles causing his knee to move around at the joint. His hip on the same leg was also slightly dislocated. Not sure when he did this but probably jumping off the chair or bed. He has medicine for the inflammation and one for pain. The real fun is trying to keep him from going up and down any of our many steps and keeping him quiet. The pain medicine is helping with that. The vet said they both should heal themselves. We take him back on Monday. Poor puppy!
Ted and I hope all our family and friends have a good Thanksgiving and remember..."Ain't Life Grand!"
