Aloha!

No, I'm not going to or coming from Hawaii, but I am doing the next best thing.  This weekend is the Pure Aloha festival at the Silverton in Las Vegas.  Some of my family from Nebraska is going to be in town, so I think we'll head over (despite the lingering summer heat).  I suspect my realtor is dancing at the festival (she's in an elite hula group that competes at major events).  Bring on the poi!

Also on the agenda:
-Stratosphere rides (I'll be the official Holder of Things while they ride)
-Go-karting
-Shopping like we're rich, and shopping in reality
-Eating, eating, eating
