What a great day! Yesterday was our first day in Vegas and we spent it moving in quickly to try and beat the sunset and have sunlight to get everything in it's place since we had no electricity. We ended up doing so many things that we skipped all our meals, so we both weren't in the best of moods by the end of the day (okay okay, I was pretty grumpy by the end of the day and was taking it out on Brent). We got to the hotel last night and fell asleep by 8 pm (Pacific time) and slept for 13 hours!! Driving wore us out!
Today we tried out a church in western Las Vegas and went grocery shopping and became members of the Albertson's (grocery store) discount club. After doing some "normal" activities, I felt much better about living here. I was starting to feel homesick about 2 hours after we got here yesterday, but now after driving around and getting to know the area, I feel like we can live here for 3 months. Not like we have a choice to turn around now :)
It was gorgeous here today, 64 degrees and sunny. We went hiking at Red Rock Canyon. It's about a 15 min drive from our apartments. It was amazing. We were going to go up a certain trail, but we missed the trail and went "off roading" on our own trail. We kept wondering why we didn't see other people on the "trail" and when we were going to get to the fantastic scenic geologic feature that was promised on our map. When we kept climbing up the trail and were walking into snow on the path, we decided to turn around. haha, oh well- it was still fun!
