Monday 26 ~~~~~Gary came over and picked up Kent and they drove out to the Cashman Ball Field to get our tickets for the game tonight, the Las Vegas 51's against the Sacramento River Cats a Pro AAA team. There is a lady in the office who gives us free tickets each year we are here. I stayed home and read and enjoyed the sunshine. We went to the ball field about six and we had wonderful seats right in front of home plate. It was $1.00 night and they had 1 dollar hot dogs, pretzels, popcorn and peanuts. The game was very good, with lots of hits and a couple of outs by trying to steal bases. There was 3 home runs, so it was a lot of action. We had a lot of fun sitting together with our friends Gary, Dan and Gail.

Next we went back home and went to a movie at the theatre in Sam's Town Casino, it was the "The Last Song" movie, starring Miley Cyrus. We really enjoyed the movie and the story line and her acting was good. We went home and watched television the rest of the night. We aren't leaving for California in the morning because the wind is so bad today and it is supposed to be worse tomorrow. We will leave on Thursday morning and drive extra miles so we can be on schedule to see Nathan's game on the way home.
