21 years ago, my wife and I got married. Last year we went to Cabo San Lucas for our anniversary, but this year we decided to go to Las Vegas instead.
We spent the majority of the day driving and made a few stops. Our first stop was at one of the projects that my wife's work has been working on, but that will be a whole separate post because I took a ton of photos there.
The other place we stopped was the Virgin River Canyon Recreation Area. It is just off of I-15 once you get out of Utah on the way down to Vegas. There is a short strip of interstate that runs through Arizona and follows the Virgin River.
It is also one of the first places heading south that you can see Joshua Trees. We have stopped here in the past on our way down south, but never stayed for long because it is hot as hell. While we were there, it was about 107 degrees, so we tried to be quick while we hiked around for a bit. I was hoping to see some wildlife, like a snake or some other desert animal, but I guess it was too hot for them too.
After we left this area, it was just another 2 hours until we made it to our resort here in Vegas, where we will be for the next few days. We are hoping to see a live show or something, but the majority of the time will be spent poolside with the occasional trip out to the Vegas strip to take photos. This should be a nice relaxing way to spend our anniversary.

If you're still thinking about a show, I recommend Paranormal Mind Reading Magic at Bally's! I saw it on Fourth of July weekend and it was really enjoyable, something different than the usual Cirque show etc.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will have to see what the tickets cost for it.
I got mine on vegas.com for a good discount.
Happy 21st anniversary, my friend. I wish you many happy anniversaries! I guessed on discord yesterday that you were in Texas. Vegas is a better choice. I hope you have a great time and have fun. In your next post I would like to see a picture of you smiling happily (like on a rainy day).
We have been down to Texas in almost 11 years. We lived there for a long time, but have no plans on ever returning. The food is decent, but it is such a hot place to live.
I particularly like the compass. Very nice shots.
Thank you
Happy anniversary! I'm sure you got plenty of activities to enjoy while in Vegas and in the end..what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, right? 😁

Congrats man. 20 years is a huge accomplishment. Did you guys do anything fun for it?
We did have plans for it but with my wife’s health issues that went out the window we had a quiet day together and had the grandkids with us was a nice day
A quiet day with the grandkids sounds like it would be the best. We are really looking forward to having some grandkids one day.
It really was nice we took them out for lunch with us and it was a fun time
That sounds like a great day
Indeed it was

I love the photo quality. May I know what filter you use here? Thanks. 😊
