Vegas again

Until recently, I had been to Las Vegas exactly once in my life--to see shows, not to gamble--and that was 12 years, maybe more, ago. Well, this year I have been back twice to visit friends. This last trip, a week ago, some of my friends insisted that I visit the strip again. Honestly, I really had no great desire to do so, but I also saw no harm in it. Plus, there was the added temptation of the Ruben's exhibit (unfortunately, photos were not allowed). So off I went, and I had a wonderful time, even if only for a couple of hours.

Here is a sampling of the very few photos I was able to take during that time. Warning--these are touristy shots, not professional.
