We went to a few fun local bars in the afternoon while we waited for Kenny to get off work. We first tried Flex but there was only one car in the parking lot. Then we both lost $11 playing the machines at another local hangout called The Escape Lounge. It was pretty dead and everyone had their face in a machine. Our final afternoon choice was the alleged oldest gay bar in Vegas called Snicks. While the website made it look like an old man hangout, the reviews in the local rags touted it as a fun conversational bar and we needed to find people to talk to! Research! This was definitely the place. We were greeted by a drunk azz local who was ridiculous. The bartender, Nick, was great. He introduced us to a few regulars and we ended up staying there for a few hours.
The highlight of the trip was going to Angel and Kenny's house. It is a really cool 80's contemporary, which is a style that Tim and I both adore. The moment she opened the door, it was like those seven years instantly disappeared. We went to dinner and then to a little local club called Freezone. The entire evening was spent with endless stories about homes, friends, family, and all the things that happen in seven years. It is amazing how much time can go by. We both agreed to never let this happen again and I'm trying to convince her to come East for a visit! I'm looking forward to today's adventures. While Kenny has to work, his son Nick, Angel, Tim, and I are planning a trip up to some mountain with great trails and views!
With the time difference, we were exhausted around 1 and went back to the hotel. We had then been going strong for 24 hours considering how early we had to get up for the flight. We ended the evening with a relaxing sit in the hot tub for about an hour. There weren't many people in the pool area-assume they were still at the big Pride Ball event. We, on the other hand, crashed hard.
