DH and I did the Hoover Dam and hiked Red Rocks... you are about three hours from the Grand Canyon.. there's a lot to see and do that is not gambling related.. The shopping is amazing....

The picture posing together and the fun you seem to be having with each other is what is causing me major envy.... What I know I would hate is Las Vegas. The getting there and the actual venue. I am the antithesis of glitz and gambling. I hate the heat, too. Couldn't we have a Pricescope get together in Acadia National Park one summer? Preferably after Labor Day? Crispy fresh lemonade on Jordan Pond and looking at bling across the tables there while eating scones and jam.

I don't gamble either and I really dislike having to walk through smoke filled casinos to get to the shopping, but once you get there, the shopping is totally worth it!
A shout out to MayK! How could I have forgotten you in my earlier post!!?? I adored you and Mr. MayK!! The loveliest (and liveliest!!) couple! It was a pleasure to meet you!!
Mayk|1370278183|3458211 said:Deb.. I tried to get two pictures to post for you.. but they are too big... DH and I did the Hoover Dam one day and the next day we hiked Red Rocks which was beautiful!!!! I was in a bit of a hurry because I was meeting the girls for lunch and shopping so I kept asking if we were at the top yet.... it was nice in the mountains cooler than the strip by about 10-15 degrees and a nice breeze. The pictures are breathtaking.. lots of beautiful color... We spent a total of $20 each in the casinos just to say we were there... The shopping is awesome... and all indoors...
We want to try and do the Grand Canyon next year and see a few more shows.. (yes, already planning next year.. it was well worth the trip everyone was fabulous)...

I was fine with taking photos with members for memories' sake, but for safety reasons I would rather not have my pieces posted publicly with a link to my face. I just flagged MayK's post to have my photo deleted. I'm so sorry if the others in group photos wanted to be posted-- I have tried to keep a somewhat neutral, slightly anonymous persona here on PS so that I am safe from the creepies and also safe from being "discovered" by people from my "real life". I am just a little more leery than your usual person about posting luxury items, then having a face to mark who owns these items. I really did battle my stance on this, as I would have loved to see the photo of myself next to Andrey from the raffle, and feel like I owe it to the PS community to at least allow that photo to be public.. but I really really don't like knowing I'm adding risk of being "discovered", or worse, targeted.
I'm so sorry, I should have said something instead of joining in group photos.. I don't mind the photos be shared in a more private manner, but not here in a very public space.

Sorry!!! I so would have blocked you!!! I knew about Bright Ice's ring because she asked me. I hope Ella sees it and takes it down....

I took 352 pics and will edit it down to the best ones.
I'm in the middle of deleting the majority for being out of focus, someone blinked, the 4 worst of 5 similar ones etc..
But I'll be left with tens of quite good ones.
Most are candid, taken with a long lens without the subject posing.
No flash, just natural light.
I know the subjects and folks here would like to see them but that brings up a real dilemma...
Clearly the priority is to respect those not wishing to have their pics posted.
But some are fine with their pics posted.
How do we identify both groups?
If Andre could compile a list of the screen names of all the participants we could list them like they listed the door prize winners above.
Then each of the members can add to the list with a YES or a NO for having their pics posted.
Next step would be for me or someone with access to all the pics to connect all the yeses with the faces.
(I have a terrible memory for faces when I see 70 new ones at one time.)
What do y'all think?

Has anyone mentioned Jura yet--pave setter located in Netherlands? Blow your mind exquisite art. I think Bebe took some pics. Hope she'll share.
