Shaving Heads And Beards For Childhood Cancer Research Leave a comment
This past Saturday (March 9th) we were in Las Vegas and watched some of the fundraising for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation ($500,000 Goal) at Nine Fine Irishmen-New York New York Hotel & Casino. The St. Baldrick’s Foundation is a volunteer-powered charity that funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government. This was a real entertaining and fun event.

Red Rock Canyon Panorama Leave a comment
Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area Panorama by kenne
The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is an easy 15-mile drive west of Las Vegas, Nevada. Located in the Mojave Desert with a beautiful desert landscape, but as a resident of the Sonoran Desert, I find the Mojave Desert very harsh. Like most deserts, the higher elevations are much more diverse in plant and animal life. This image was taken near the Visitors Center. A one-way paved loop road, 13 miles long, provides vehicle access to many of the features in the area and to more challenging primitive roads.

Our One And Only Wedding Picture 6 comments
“One and Only” Wedding Picture
Joy and I had been partners for 16 years before deciding to elope to Las Vegas,
getting married at the Clark County Court House in 2002,
which distraught family and friends.
The couple who were our witnesses took the only picture —
Can you believe I didn’t have my camera!
We tend to do things in a non-traditional way.
Courthouse full of ghosts
No Vegas Elvis Wedding
Strangers our witness.

Good music,
a good cigar and
good bourbon —
young people
on the edge.
Growing and
changing with
certain weaknesses
boldly seeking love
without responsibilities.

A Beautiful Year of the Dog in the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, Las Vegas — Photo Essay by kenne
Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens debuted its Chinese New Year display about a week before our Vegas trip, and it’s themed to fit the “Year of the Dog.” There are 18 dogs in the display to represent the beginning of 2018, and an 18 ft. tall husky dominating the center of the display.

The Bellagio Fountains Art 3 comments
Computer Art by kenne (Las Vegas, February 5, 2018)
Visitors
to Las Vegas
can be seen
standing
and waiting,
some up to
30 minutes
just to see
the fountains
of Bellagio,
truly one
of the best
free shows
in Vegas,
beautifully
choreographed to
Frank Sinatra singing
“One Singular Sensation.”
One moment
in its presence
provides a
thrilling
combination
in every move
as the water
rockets and
dances in front
of the Vegas
Eiffel Towel.

And if blue is an illusion,
what will become of innocence?
What will become of the heart
if Love has no arrows?

Paris Las Vegas — View from Bellagio by kenne
I’ve never been to Paris
so Paris Las Vegas
will have to do for now.
I’ve also been to Paris, Texas
where I once conducted
an in-service, not much there.
We stayed in New York New York,
the pool was drained and the
casino computers went down.
Still, my favorite Vegas past time
is people watching especially
topless women walking the Strip.

If all ideas have to be bought,
then you have an intellectually regressive system
that will assure you have a highly knowledgeable elite
and an ignorant mass.

30 Years of Togetherness — Some kind of lovely ride. 11 comments
Kenne & Joy, Las Vegas, 1989.
We were a couple for 16 years before getting married May 18, 2002 in Los Vegas. Thirty years of togetherness, but who’s counting.
“The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.”
Secret O’ Life
The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.
Any fool can do it, there ain’t nothing to it.
Nobody knows how we got to the top of the hill.
But since we’re on our way down, we might as well enjoy the ride.
The secret of love is in opening up your heart.
It’s okay to feel afraid, but don’t let that stand in your way.
Cause anyone knows that love is the only road.
And since we’re only here for a while, might as well show some style. Give us a smile.
Isn’t it a lovely ride? Sliding down, gliding down,
try not to try too hard, it’s just a lovely ride.
Now the thing about time is that time isn’t really real.
It’s just your point of view, how does it feel for you?
Einstein said he could never understand it all.
Planets spinning through space, the smile upon your face, welcome to the human race.
Some kind of lovely ride. I’ll be sliding down, I’ll be gliding down.
Try not to try too hard, it’s just a lovely ride.
Isn’t it a lovely ride? Sliding down, gliding down,
try not to try too hard, it’s just a lovely ride.
The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.
