Las Vegas NV
Well we are back on the road, and back in Vegas. I had no idea how much I missed home until I went back there. I really do love my city, it has great weather, great people, and a million things to do. Not to mention my family and friends are all there. If I didnt get to see you while I was back, I am sorry. In retrospect, I should have either scheduled much more time at home, or not come home at all.
Vegas is hot, and there is construction everywhere we go, which means traffic everywhere we go, but we got to meet with some cool people today. We met with some people from xxxchurch.com, and from Central Christian Church. Both places are doing great things here in Vegas.
For now we are going to relax and enjoy the pool. Oh by the way this hotel, Palace Station is totally shady. They sold us the room online at $25 a night, which is why we got these rooms, and then once we got here they told us there is an extra $14 a night service fee. Why was this not included in the confirmed price? It was totally a bait and switch, but at least I know I am never staying here again. Other than that it has been cool to see what God is doing in the midst of Sin City.
Miles Today (yesterday for me): 280
Total Miles: ~8600
For the second leg of our journey I am going to update what’s going on in my perspective as well. Especially on days like today where I (Ryan) rode separately from Nathanael.
I took off this morning from Long Beach to meet Nate here in Vegas. My ride was going great until I had a run in with the CHP. I got caught in a speeding crackdown. There were 6 CHP officers in black and whites waiting on an overpass and they pulled over 6 cars including myself in this particular location. I, unlike Nate got lucky. I told the officer what I was doing and where I was going and he let me off the hook. For the record I was going 85 in a 75, thats not too bad, is it?
As Nate said it is really hot here and I do not know how the native Las Vegas folk do it, I can’t stand the heat!
