About Me
- Patty
- My name is Patty. Welcome to my blog. I am a long time fan of Rosie O'Donnell. After 20 years of working as a dental assistant/X-Ray technician, I decided to change the course of my life. I returned to school and now I am a (Pivot Point trained) registered cosmetologist. I enjoy my chosen profession and love creating new, cutting edge styles. My specialty is color techniques and advanced skin care. I also make beautiful Fitness Hoops and love to introduce others to hooping. I'm an Etsy Entrepreneur and am loving it. I believe if you find something that you love to do, it isn't work....it's a pleasure. Thanks for visiting and please leave a comment on my blog even if it's just to let me know you dropped by!
Thank you, San

Though some cite archaeological evidence of the practice, others argue that it never occurred and that accounts of the method are based on folklore or inaccurate translations. Which Viking Age rulers were reportedly victims of the gruesome torture? More... Discuss |

Not enough credit is given to the artistry of neon!

Thank you Sandy. It is quite like a carnival...especially on Fremont Street. Thanks for the visit.
Thanks Karen....for the visit and the comment. Aren't the buildings beautiful at night?!
Urban Thought....I miss Vegas, too. I'd like to live there! Perhaps when I retire. Sounds like a plan to me!
Keith, if you've never been to Vegas....you should go. It's one place I think everyone should visit at least once in their life. You won't regret it.
Gattina....it has change drastically since I was there many years ago. It's like sensory overload! Over the top and breathtaking.
Thanks for stopping by.
Mah-Meeee....I'm glad you liked the images. These were some of the best ones that depicted the 'night life'. Hope you get to go back ago soon.
Thanks for the visit and comment.
Em, thank you for the kind words. The structures lend themselves to beautiful images. I especially like the Palazzo!
Erin, I agree. There are so many beautiful neon signs in Las Vegas. Many of the older signs are being restored and they plan to open a Neon Sign Museum. Glad to know they aren't destined for the neon graveyard.
After the sun sets, that's when the REAL Las Vegas shines. Great photos, Patty.
Ya gotta love Vegas!
Great pics.
San, lots of magical things happen in Las Vegas....under the cover of darkness :-)
Oh Snooker...I do love Vegas!
Thanks for the visit. Long time - no see.
