I went hiking yesterday at Mt Charleston, about 30 Minutes from Vegas. Very hard to believe this is so close to the desert... it was 65 degrees at the mountain, and 100 in vegas, so it was a great escape from the heat... I convinced the bluebird in the picture to give my power bar a try. He loved it and seemed to be begging for more.. Then I gave him some Clif Bar, which he admitted to liking even more. After his tasty treat, he became very loud, singing, almost yelling, I guess he wasn't used to the big sugar rush? Its not like I gave him caffeine, so give me a break... Then we hiked to a waterfall, hard to tell in the picture, but there is a good stream of water coming down... on the way back to the car it was getting dark, and we saw tons of deer, the picture of the deer didn't turn out too well, just a little too dark.

New Security System for the house....
I installed this gravel "D" in the front yard, which obviously stands for "don't" break in and steal from this house. I'm feeling much safer already thanks to the "D".
A quick update on the orange tree... The only orange growing on the tree fell off this morning, not even as big as a quarter yet, very very sad.
And the backyard is becoming even more dangerous, with toxic mushrooms. I may have to go out and buy some golf clubs, since the mushrooms are about the size of a golf ball complete with its own tee. I could spend a nice evening smacking these things into the neighbors yard.
Vegas Shows
I just realized all my posts lately are about yard work, how boring right? Well I do spend most of my week working, but I get tons of show tickets from work, so I get the chance to see many of the best Vegas shows for free, lucky I know... Just promise not to tell my dates that I'm cheap and got the tickets for free....
