After that series of six blogs I took a bit of a rest. It’s been a bit of a roller coaster in the last month or so. A few ups a few downs. A lot of sadness around me. And trying to be unaffected by it all. I have been on an eating binge and that has definitely affected how I feel. Comfort eating is never a good thing when you are type two diabetes, and have arthritis in almost every inch of your body.

So one of the things that I did do was to have a goal to work towards, and something to keep the excitement in my life. I booked four nights and five days in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was super cheap and it was a place with no snow.

With passport in hand, I was off to the city of lights and city that never sleeps. Or something like that. Everyone questioned why I was going because they know I don’t gamble. And it’s true Vegas is definitely known for gambling and casinos and betting. But I love Live theatre shows, and the great magic of nature. So off I went booking Cirque de Soliel shows and tours of the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon. In one day on the strip, I walked 18 km. My tours took 10 to 14 hours and started at the wee hours of the morning.

I was in photography heaven. It was everything I dreamt of and more.

I’ve now added flying in a helicopter into the Grand Canyon, going down to the Colorado river, and watching the beauty around me. But I think it’ll take a bit of planning for the next budget. It’s a costly adventure.

Remember to never put off until tomorrow what can be accomplished today. It’s working towards a goal that matters.

May I be safe. May I be healthy. May I be happy. May I live with ease.
