Las Vegas for the winter?

Recently, I have been trying to nail down a contract position for the winter months. About two weeks ago, I received an email, out of the blue, from a lady who staffs CRNAs for Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas. I have been in contact with her and things were looking pretty good so Mike and I decided to check out some RV parks were we could stay if I took the contract. We drove all over the place! Unfortunately, the only parks reasonably close to the base were in a kind of scary neighborhood and even though they had security gates, I don't think I would want to stay there for 4 months. The nicest park was too far away for Mike to be able to take me and pick me up from work. There were a few parks close to each other that seemed safe and a good community but the commute took 30 minutes in light traffic and hitting most of the lights when they were green. Too far if I have to be on call. Plus, I'm not sure Mike would have been able to get onto the base to pick me up because he wouldn't have a military ID. There were a few other issues so I guess it won't work out. It's too bad though because I think it would be so fun to live there for a few months. Maybe it's for the best because we probably wouldn't have been saving too much money. Anyway, the search continues.

After spending the afternoon in Las Vegas traffic, I treated myself to a manicure and pedicure and Mike waited for me at the bar across the way. They had Spaten Oktoberfest on draft. Yeah!

Later on we got spiffed up and went out on the town. We had a great time and rolled into bed around 3:30 in the morning.
