Shawn, I don't know how you do it. I can't enjoy myself if I have not slept.
BTW, I saw the Hoover Dam on my travels to Reno and you are absolutely right: It is massive!! I was completely amazed that people had built it. I found out after seeing it that there is a dam in washington that is larger! Here is a picture of it in wikipedia, and here is a picture of one of the bolts. That bolt is 193 lbs, so that guy holding it must be pretty big though he looks small due to the fact that he is holding a bolt.
Wow those are some super duper structures! Little known fact about that guy holding the bolt, he's actually Superman. Yeah I know. Came as a shock to me too! LOL
Well, I'm actually reaching a point where I can't roll like I used to with the sleep deprivation. The zombie-like state I was in provoked the option of actually making it a point to sleep at some point in these little excursions.
Plus, y'know, you've got a couple years on me... We used to could kill a 2 or 3 day streak with no sleep like it wasn't a thing... I guess age is catching up with us, old chap *tear* lol

Hahaha right on... and it was 2 tickets by the way (1 in CO and 1 in UT) lol... that's how we roll : P
Yeah, I didn't quite project the gas money portion correctly, so as I got back and looked in my wallet and was broke, it became clear what the real cost of the trip was LOL... Whatever though, I'm doin it again in July or August just because it was so wonderful! Probably fly this time though.
And yes, I got your chips (one from NY NY and one from MGM Grand), they're so pretty! lol
I'm afraid I can't let you tell anyone about my being a daywalker, we've gone to great lengths to keep the concept of our existence to fable, to continue the belief we're no more than fantasy. I'll let you slide though, as you're my buddy, but tell anyone else and I'll have to eat them. LOL
