Another Night Strippin'

George’s brother Thomas and his friend Linda came for a visit over the weekend. So of course, the four of us had to go the Las Vegas “Strip.” It turned out to be a very fun and long night.

The Strip was busy and crowded like we haven’t seen in quite some time. Apparently, the economy is approving. Or people are just slipping back into their old habits of living beyond their means just to have a little fun.

Either way...it was a fun night “strippin’.”

Very heavy and slow moving traffic along the Strip.

A surreal world unfolds every evening behind these Roman columns of Caesars Palace. “Absinthe” is the alternative to Cirque du Soleil, another once alternative troupe gone mainstream. This little place brings some bohemian flair to the epicenter of pomp and glitz.

From a subtle bohemian world right back smack in the middle of pure decadence. This is the hotel lobby of Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip.
