Busy Busy Busy

I think we have one more week of busy-ness before things calm down a bit.  Today we went on our weekly hike into Red Rock Canyon (we named our guide Adventurous Nick because he loves to "explore", meaning we end up climbing over a lot of big rocks and boulders!) and I got some great pictures here and above (that's a barrel cactus according to our guide).

Wednesday at midnight we will take the bus to Los Angeles (it's a six hour ride so we will sleep on the way there) then be in the audience of the Jeff Probst show.  After the taping is done we will take the bus back home.

Also sometime this week we will do two volksmarches, visit the Family Research Center so I can do some genealogy research, and hopefully get two shower doors that we will install.

And best of all...remember when I told you to write your goals down?  Yes again it worked!  Out of the blue one of our cousins called yesterday and asked if we wanted to go to San Francisco for a week, all expenses paid!  She doesn't want her sister driving alone to come and pick her up so we will drive up with the sister, stay in one of the cousin's condos for a week, then all ride back to Las Vegas together.  There is no way I could have foreseen such a great deal basically landing in our lap but I have wanted to go to San Francisco for ages so I put it on my goal list and it actually happened!
