Yesterday we journeyed to Las Vegas for GodBlogCon (God Blog Convention).
Las Vegas is a beautiful 5 hour drive from our home so we decided to take the mountainous drive rather than mess with the airports. From a practical point of view, we probably get to our hotel quicker driving.
We left a day earlier than necessary for the conference, as we were having a surprise 80th birthday party for my wife's father, David Wells.
Above is my wife Carol (on the left), and her sister Beth sporting their goofy masks with the 80 year old birthday boy in the middle.
In all 16 members of the family made the trek, across the country, to make for a wonderful surprise party for the elder statesman's surprise party.
As you can see, from the group photograph, I use the word "statesman" with a significant amount of tongue and cheek.
Here we have the birthday boy with his two sisters, Dot & Martha.
All in all, we had a wonderful visit with family and now look forward to the upcoming convention.
Tonight we attend an opening reception dinner put on by the Family Research Council.
I will reconnect with you tomorrow to share more of the details of GodBlogCon. In the meantime, I feel a nap coming on. The beds here, in the new Trump Las Vegas Hotel are very, very cozy!
