"Wiley" Coyote...

We had a fun treat this morning hanging around in my sister- and brother-in-law's backyard . Scott asked me to come downstairs right away and bring my camera. I was kind of curious as to why he wanted me to do this. This is what I found. Wow, how cool! I've never been this close to a wild coyote. Gosh, it was so much fun to take pictures of him. We decided to call animal control to have them get it out of the backyard since the house is in a neighborhood at the end of the street. The coyote left in a big hurry........but........ you'll never guess what!! Tonight he slipped through the bars on the gate and is back hiding in the bushes again.......what in the world makes him want to stay here in this backyard?!! Hopefully more pictures tomorrow!


Chihuly Glass...

This was an impressive gallery that we saw last night. Everything is for sale and oh so pretty! Pictures can't really describe how beautiful everything looked.........you have to be there to experience it. His work is in the ceiling of the Bellagio's main hallway when you walk in the entrance.




This blue color was so awesome!! I wanted to take home everything there!!! Well, at least I got pictures....cheaper that way!!





Scott asked how much this piece (see photo below) sold for.................. $450,000.00!! I asked how they shipped it. I was told it would be disassembled to ship and then put back together at your house! This was really huge, probably 10 feet high or more......but absolutely awesome looking!! I loved it....guess for that price I would have to love it! Right?

The Bellagio...

The Bellagio was decorated for Christmas with absolutely awesome decorations. Can't wait to see what they have next. I'm sure they will come up with something fantastic, they always do!






This photo (below) is of the ceiling which is located in the lobby and is up year round. Just had to add it to the pictures. Love all the colors!






This photo (below) is behind the counter in the lobby. I'm wondering how heavy those Christmas ornaments actually weigh?


How tall is that tree? I should have asked someone.....I'm definitely curious!!
