Elton John Concert

Last Sunday night Steve and went to see Elton John in concert at Caesar's.  This was one of his last performances for the Red Piano Concert Tour at Caesar's Palace.  It was a terrific concert with a lot of energy and favorite songs; such as "Tiny Dancer", "Bennie and the Jets", "Crocodile Rock", "Levon", "Candle in the Wind", and many others.  Justin Timberlake played a young Elton in a great video to accompany "Rocket Man".  We have unique opportunity in Las Vegas to see many wonderful performers and right now many places are offering half price tickets to locals.

Steve's Retirement Party

These are pictures of Steve's retirement party at Maggiano's at the Fashion Show Mall.  We had 60 friends, family, business associates and ex-employees help us celebrate Steve's retirement.  Maggiano's did a great job with the food and bar and even sent an accordion player in to play a few tunes including; "For he's a golly good fellow".   Several people asked to speak and said some really nice things about Steve.  Steve's in the middle of the picture on the left.   

FIRST Las Vegas Regional

Sorry I wasn't closer when I took this picture but this is the winning match for the FIRST Robotic Competition Las Vegas Regional.  50 high school teams showed and competed over a three day period.  The competition was based on robots collecting moon rocks and loading them into their opponent's pod trailing behind the robots.  Each match took two minutes and it was best two out of three matches to advance.  Competition was fierce and the over all winner was an alliance including Cimmaron High School.  I volunteer for the event and learn how to run the pit administration desk.  It was a lot of fun working with these very motivated high school students.
