We took a short break from traveling for a month or so before I left on a 2 week TDY to Nellis Air Force Base, Las Vegas, in March. The course was purely ground training- no flying but Kristen came out at the end and we started a two week trip to the states with a long weekend in Vegas. We had a great time. Nellis has something we call the "petting zoo" which is a park of enemy weapons systems you can crawl around on and sit in and, in our case, take pictures with. Kristen is on top of a Russian made SA-8, which is a short range surface to air missile system. We spent lots of time having fun on the strip (and winning at casinos!). We also went hiking in Red Rock Canyon- awesome time. From Las Vegas we flew down to Texas where we got to see all of you! Writing this blog, I realize that we didn't take a single picture with our camera while we were in Texas. Kristen says its really hard to take pictures and eat chips and salsa at the same time, and we were doing a lot of chips and salsa eating.
