Poor Air Conditioner!

Lights change every 5 seconds

I like the blues best!

We immediately put on the air conditioner (a/c) in the 5th wheel RV yesterday, about 1pm, and it worked and worked and worked. Never shut off until 3am this morning.  It is so dry here in Las Vegas that typically you see moisture coming out of an a/c, dripping down the sides of the RV.  Not a drop.  And it's very dark inside...we have pulled down all the shades and put out the awning to try to shield the sun off the sides and windows.

As I type this at 2pm today, I am looking at the outside temp of 102.  And the heat of the day is not here yet - about 5pm is the hottest it gets.  Great.  We are located on the eastern side of the main strip of Vegas, have no desire to venture to the big draw casinos but can see them from a distance and at night - wow, the lights! Right next door is another casino called the Eastside Cannery and I was mesmerized by the light display on the building.  Until we went to bed and had to really block out the windows....just to block the light show.  Can't win.  But - I am looking forward to seeing it again tonight, I am a sucker.  The amount of electricity that building along must use to show this light display and all the other casinos and us and everyone else running their a/c!

Sam's Town offers buffet meals and we walked over to it early this morning to get a good breakfast and had to walk through the casino to the buffet.  Maybe 20 people at the slots.  Weird to see.  Any time I have gone to a casino (a number of them around Tucson and Phoenix) lots of people and lots of smoking.  Like a ghost town but with the smoking smell regardless.  Yuck.

Leaving in the morning for a small town called Ely, Nevada.  About 225 miles north of here, and 40 degrees cooler.  Are we looking forward to it!
