Jerry, my dad, took Whitney and I out to the desert to shoot some empty bottles with his survival 22’s. A “22″ is a gun or in this case a rifle. The neat thing about these was that they completely collapse into the stock of the rifle. The stock is the part the goes into your shoulder. 

Anyway, here are some pics of us shooting. All three of us, Jerry, Whitney and I, hit some of the bottles. 

Watch out Doc Holiday Whitney is on the loose!

ARGGGHHHH!!

Well El Paso was good, but it is time to go to our new home. Over the next 2-3 days we will be driving from El Paso to Colonial Heights, Virginia. It will be a long trip, but I believe it will be good. I’ll post when I can, but you might have to wait a couple days. Love you all!! 

Well day four was the Grand Canyon. Not to be too lame, but it was really Grand! I was very impressed by the beauty and the sheer magnitude of it. We stayed the night inside the park at a lodge. If you ever have a chance to do that…DON’T! It was the worst hotel I have stayed in for quite sometime. 

Unfortunately Whitney was sick, so we didn’t get to go white-water-rafting, but maybe next time. I wanted to go down in the canyon, but we just didn’t have enough time. I really hope that I can do that before I die. Listen to me, I’m only 26 almost 27. heh Anyway, I hope you enjoy these pictures. 

This picture reminds me of cousin IT from the Adam’s Family.

I was warned not to approach or feed the animals. I should have heeded the advice!

This is my new hat.

This older couple came up and said, “Want us to take your picture?” So I said, “Sure.” As the older lady walked up she saw my shirt which has a skull on one side and heart on the other. In between the two is a cross and the words, “death to life”. She really liked that shirt. She said, “I like that a lot.” as she touched the cross on the shirt. They then took the picture and said, “God bless.” 

Whitney ate this chili in a bread bowl. She felt so sick after she ate it. She wasn’t smiling like in this picture. I had a burger, Nathan’s hot dog and a banana. heh It was the epitome of a healthy breakfast…j/k

Thanks for visiting!

Alright well I know that we are already past day three, but because I haven’t had internet I’m going to pretend we are on day three. 

Yesterday, day two, we hung out in Cali, and today we are on our way to Las Vegas. We will be staying at Caesars Palace. As we checked into the hotel I asked if we could have an upgrade, and the guy said, “Yeah sure!” We got such a nice room. I felt bad for staying in it because it had two huge flat panel plasma tv’s, and a flat panel tv in the bathroom mirror! It was something straight out of cribs or lifestyles of the rich and famous. It was bigger than my first apt. after high school. Here are a few pictures of the hotel. If you ask nicely I might put some pics up of our room, but you have to ask!

How do we look?

Here are some pictures from the Belaggio. This first one is from the gardens that they have. Apparently they have a theme every so often. When I was there a few months ago it was an oriental theme. This one was an American theme. There was a train on a track going through Mt. Rushmore. It was a really cool setup. They did a very impressive job with the setup. If your ever in the area check it out. It is free and worth a stop.

My wife and I ate at In N Out 4 days in a row! It was soooo good. This is what I order- 2×4 animal style, no onions, with extra toast. In laymen’s terms that is two patties with four pieces of cheese, the buns grilled longer, and animal style is kinda like a special spread like thousand island, and with mustard smeared on the patties. I hope that makes sense, but you just need to know that they make the best burgers ever!

Here are just some pictures we took on the strip. 

I love Ben & Jerry’s ice cream! 

I’ll put up more pictures later and post a link to the photo gallery so you can enjoy!

Write to me!

So we took a red eye flight from Honolulu to LA. The morning began when we parked at Huntington Beach where we slept in the car for 3 hours! We were so tired it was ridiculous. After walking on the beautiful beaches we hopped in the car and headed for Hollywood to become stars, ok not really.

We drove around Sunset Blvd, Hollywood Blvd, Santa Monica Blvd and other streets. After driving around and not seeing anything special we bought a map. As we followed the map we went to Mann’s Chinese Theatre only to find some very unique characters. We saw Batgirl, Wonderwoman, Captain Jack Sparrow, who Whitney swore was Johnny Dep until we got closer, and other crazy people. Optimus Prime, from Transformers, rejected taking a picture of me I think because I had a mohawk. Maybe I will become a decepticon, a bad transformer.

Sean Connery’s block

We didn’t want to drive around all day because I could hardly see anything because I was driving, so we got a tour. This tour was to show us celeb’s houses, rodeo drive, Beverly Hills and other snobby places. The house shown below is David’s Spade’s. He is in great comedies like Joe Dirt, SNL, Dickie Roberts etc. Apparently he hates the tour buses. He throws things at them and even tried to ram his car into one. Unfortunately we didn’t get to see him.

Then we went back to Mann’s Chinese Theatre and ate Mongolian BBQ, which is so good if you haven’t had it. Then we saw more characters like Wolverine, the Flash and Gene Simmons from Kiss. Mind you none of them were real After that we drove to our hotel, the Sheraton, in downtown LA and went to sleep!

Today is going to be fun because we are driving to Las Vegas where we get to eat the all you can eat buffet at the Bellagio. That is by far the best buffet I have ever had, so we are stoked. I will upload more pictures later to the photo album, so check back soon!
