SATURDAY

WELL WE DECIDED TO SPEND THE DAY DOING SOME FREE ACTIVITIES AND OF COURSE MILES WANTED TO GO TO THE VEGAS AM JAM SKATEBOARD COMPETITION IN NORTH LAS VEGAS.
WELL FIRST THING WE HEADED TO THE ALOHA FESTIVAL NEAR THE OUTLET MALL, BUT THEY WERE HOLDING A BICYCLE EVENT AND HAD ALL THE KIDS FROM AFTER-SCHOOL ALL STARS WERE PERFORMING THEIR VARIOUS ACTS. MILES GOT A BAG FULL OF FREE GOODIES AND A FREE HELMET FOR SKATEBOARDING/BICYCLING. THE FOOD & ACTIVITIES WERE JUST FOR THE REGISTERED PARTICIPANTS SO WE DECIDED TO TRY AND FIND THE ALOHA FESTIVAL AND WE DID IT WAS ALOT SMALLER THAN THE ONE WE ATTENDED IN HENDERSON AND THE FOOD WASN'T QUITE READY SO WE DECIDED TO LEAVE BUT NOT BEFORE MELISSA WENT INTO THE GOVT CENTER AND CAST HER 2008 BALLOT.
ALOHA!ALOHA!
WE THEN DECIDED TO HEAD OVER TO ANOTHER KOMP 92.3 FREE GIVEAWAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD SO WE COULD WIN SOME FREE STUFF & YES WE DID-WE WON 2 TICKETS TO THE NHRA RACES SUNDAY BUT WE TRADED THEM TO ANOTHER GUY FOR 2 TICKETS TO "HOTEL FEAR" A MAJOR HAUNTED HOUSE HERE IN VEGAS. MILES & MELISSA WILL BE GOING TONITE.
AFTER WINNING TICKETS WE HEADED TO THE PALACE STATION WHERE WE NOTICED THEY HAD A CAR SHOW & TRICK-OR-TREAT THING GOING ON FOR THE KIDS. MILES LOVES THE CARS & THEY HAD THEM ALL DRESSED UP LIKE HALLOWEEN & OF COURSE HE SCORED A HUGE BAG OF CANDY.
AFTER THE CAR SHOW WE HEADED TO THE SKATE COMPETITION & BOY WAS IT EXCITING LIVE BANDS 100'S OF KIDS OF ALL AGES DOING BIKE & SKATEBOARD TRICKS AND A DOZEN OR SO BOOTHES DOING DRAWINGS & GIVEAWAYS. WE HAD A GREAT TIME & MILES WON A "ZOO YORK" T-SHIRT & CAUGHT LOTS OF STUFF THEY THREW FROM THE STAGE DURING THE AWARDS CEREMONY. WE ALSO WON FREE TACOS FROM CHIPOTLE RESTAURANT. WE WENT THERE DIRECTLY AFTER THE EVENT. NOW I'M HOME RESTING & WATCHING COLLEGE FOOTBALL & THE "OTHERS" ARE GOING TO THE HAUNTED HOUSE.BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE SLIDESHOW 100+ PICS.

Sounds like a full day-eventful and inexpensive--my cup of tea. I have always enjoyed car shows but we haven't been to one in years and yet there id Cruz Night every other Friday night all summer long. I guess by evening we are too tired to get up and go. Must be getting old. Did Miles get some cool shoes at the giveaway? It was raint, then windy, then just plain nasty here for the weekend. Mike's job is having a huge shake-up and it seems that after 30 years, it just may be over. We will know more soon....They have already laid off 35% of the workforce. Rumor is plant shut down. I guess we'll see.
