Heres the story of the vegas trip.. My wife wanted to go on a cruise in June. I tried to get her to plan for the convention instead. She said if we do the cruise this year we would do the convention the next year. Well after the crappy tax return we decided to do no vacation. Then a week a few weeks back my dad called me and told me he purchaced plane tickets for us to go to vegas from June 21 to the 24th and booked me and my wife a room at Bellagio. My dad will be at his sports editors convention during that time, so theres no way to change that date. It just was by coincidence that it is in June and that we will leave a few days before the convention. I was going to try to extednd the stay to atleast be there for the first day of the convention to meet yall but there is no way im going to be able to afford that. SOOOOOOO i still will get to meet some of the local chippers and early arriving chippers. Better than nothing!
