Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas

Vegas was a lot fun

It was hot. We went to the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign.

it was the first time I had seen it.

And walked around in the Bellagio hotel, had a delicious buffet there, and saw the fountain.

And spent most of our time in the 108 degree weather at the pool.

It was very relaxing.

But it is very nice to be back in Salt Lake.

5 Pointz

Courtney, Taylor and I made the trek up to Queens to see 5 pointz today

a graffiti "museum" that is a square block that graffiti artists covered in their own artwork.

Almost every square inch of the walls were covered in graffiti. some of them were so impressive it was almost impossible to believe they were done with spray paint.

like this one of Batman... Joker was painted too but a van was blocking him so I couldn't get the whole mural in the same shot.

This one was a clear favorite of mine. When we came back the garage door was open and the entire inside room was also done in the same pattern. It was amazing.

The day inspired me to change my title picture... Thanks NY graffiti artists.

@thoyt's birthday

Today was Taylor's birthday

Courtney, Taylor and I went to the row boats at Central Park.

to dinner at unknown Italian restaurant in little Italy,

then to Brooklyn bowl to get turned away because we didn't have tickets to the Talib Kweli concert,

then to Bowlmore carnival place (very sketchy until we got upstairs).

It was a very enjoyable day.

pictures were taken on Courtney's camera and will probably appear on her blog sometime within the next two days...

But here are so unrelated pictures
