No! Las Vegas has knocked Gilly’s out of the city. No!

Thanks to Dan for this one… and a little reference to a similar loss for Dan :)

If any of you have heard about my epic trips to Las Vegas then you’ve certainly learned of my fondness for Gilly’s. Well that has all come to a close now. I knew the New Frontier was on it’s way out, just didn’t know when. Gilly’s had some of the strongest, cheapest drinks in town along with a wonderful country music atmosphere and the ever popular “bikini bull riding”. I always found it to get raunchier each time around. It was great for cheap (relatively) entertainment. I remember once when Mason even got to be a judge… R.I.P Gilly’s

Slow down time

Well after literally 2 months of non-stop action with the wedding, honeymoon, camping, etc.. I finally have some downtime.

It feels good to not have anything planned this weekend where we have to go out of town or have non-stop events through the weekend.  I think I’ll take some time to relax and try and fix the dishwasher.  That darn garage is still waiting for me too :-/

Let me run through the month of July quick.    Bt and E had a lovely housewarming party. Country Jam was a mellow success this year in which BT and E joined us and Dan surprised us by getting back in the mix (pictures coming).  The Gillen family camping weekend was a good time.  Got into some vball and bags.

I believe our wedding pictures are running a little behind schedule, but I’ve got no problems there.  I ordered myself a new dell desktop today which is exciting since I was LONG overdue for a new rig.  Two advantages of the Dell… with their coupon it priced out under anything I could build on my own.  I know it’s gonna work out of the box.

Volleyball is flying by.  We’ve been playing quite well as a team this summer.  I don’t want to jinx anything but I feel good about a playoff run.

Oh yeah, football is right around the corner and I am pumped for the Badgers and to watch my beloved Pack stink it up… and I’m looking forward to a possible Vegas trip this fall, anyone interested?
