Went to Las Vegas this weekend. Not. Too bad of a trip. They have some cool stuff to see here but in general it’s a giant shit hole. Worth going but I don’t think a return visit is high on my list. Here are some cool pictures. The way they build the huge hotels is probably the most amazing thing here.

Got the brackets to mount my fog lights the other day. This is an approximate look of what it would look like after mounting. Slowly coming along.

Went to Half Dome on Saturday and hiked Half Dome. Here are some of the pictures I took on the way up and down.

Went camping this weekend and hit up the rodeo they had this weekend. Was raining most of the time but still was a good time. Made a beautiful shelter out of a tarp that weathered the wind and rain for two nights. Worked like a charm.

This is the first photo of Kelley Park 2009. I haven’t had a chance to go through them yet other than this one so keep your eyes posted for more to come.

UPDATE: Got the pictures up. No adjustments on them or anything yet so they aren’t looking 100% quite yet. Kelley Park 2009

Had a bit of excitement in the Tacoma today. Lady ran the red and I could not swerve away and she hit the rear end. Big bummer. Got the day off work which is always nice though. ;)

I started taking out some if the interior stuff to work on it and pop the dent in the roof out. Still fighting with the insurance company. My tree guy is flaking out and keeps forgetting to write my letter. :(

A while back one of the guys at work decided to have some fun with the nail gun. I guess it missed the bone or went around it or something.

Stole this video from Jalopnik.com. It’s a video of driver Ken Block doing some crazy rally racing at 60+Mph on a dirt road.

It was kinda weird to do but I upgraded the firmware on my tv. Was supposed to add some aspect features and fix some other minor stuff. Plugged in a flash drive to my computer added the files then flashed the firmware through the USB thumb drive on the tv. Not something you’d normally think you could do to a tv but cool none the less.
