I wanted to write a quick paragraph on a show we saw down in Las Vegas this past week while I was down there for training. Yeah,….I know. Tough to get through a whole week down there, but I managed. Anyway, we ( a co-worker and I) had training in the convention center at the MGM Grand. One of the many shows down there at the casino is “Ka”. It is one of the Cirque Du Soleil stage productions. We went on Tuesday night last week and it was amazing! The special effects, and what they did with the stage and just everything! It actually has a story behind it. It’s about twins, a girl and a boy who get separated from each other and the journey they make apart to find one another again. This is what it says on the “CIRQUE DU SOLEIL” website. “EMBARK ON AN ADVENTUROUS JOURNEY YOU CAN SEE IT. YOU CAN EXPERIENCE IT. BUT, YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT! The KÀ Universe - KÀ transcends place and time, with a theatrical landscape, scenic elements and costumes inspired by an array of diverse cultures. Brought to life by 80 artists from around the world, KÀ is a gravity-defying production featuring a powerfully emotive soundtrack that enhances the innovative blend of acrobatic feats, Capoeira dance, puppetry, projections and martial arts“. Anyway, if any of you are lucky enough to see one of the Cirque Du Soleil shows, this one was excellent. They have several in Las Vegas and around the world. I actually saw this one twice last week,…once with my co-worker and then with Dave on Saturday night. He flew down to Vegas for the weekend and then we came home on Sunday night.

A TOUGH WEEK IN LAS VEGAS

I was wondering what you were doing down there-a week? Good Hell! I can't stand it there for any long than a day and a half-such a filthy city! Sounds like the show was worthwhile, tho. I have been to one of them years ago with my friend Karyl. Glad you had fun, and thanks for the thoughts/prayers on Heather's and Gary's family. Love ya....
