Russ and I headed down to Vegas for the air show this weekend. We drove down with Jeff, Russ' cousin and met up with his friend Lloyd and soon to be fiance Katie in St George. Lloyd lives down in St. George so we were able to stay with them. Russ loves the air show so this is an annual trip we make!! I actually did pretty good for being 7 1/2 months pregnant. Parking for this airshow is pretty ridiculous!! Last year I think we waited at least 3-4 hours just to get out of the base since they bus everyone in and out. This year we were pretty smart and went in the back way and parked in the lot where most the locals go. The lines to the base were not bad. But the miracle was after the airshow when they were busing people back. We Left right at the end after the thunder birds did their show and got in line. There was a lot of people in line already, so we followed the crowd that moved up in line on the right hand side of the line area. As bad and annoying as that is to some people, man it was worth it. We merged with the left side of the line and right where were were, a bus came and we cut across to get on. We were able to get on the first bus out!!! How does that happen?? Well I think someone was lookin' out for me cause my hips were killin' me and we didn't have anything to eat all afternoon so I was starving!! And funny thing was, when they dropped us off, they were giving out free loaf of bread to everyone as advertisement for a new product. It was good bread and held us over until we got to the buffet we ate at. Pretty awesome!!!
