Coming back into Las Vegas after seeing the Hoover Dam we ran into a nice little storm. It dumped buckets of rain on west Las Vegas but mostly missed where we were driving. Here are just a couple of photos of the fun.
Camping in a yurt in Newport
A few weekends back, Emily, myself, Carl, Bobby, and a few friends drove over to Newport to go camp in a yurt for a few days. Our original plan was for Bobby and me to go diving for some fun. In the end, we never even tried to get into the water. A very high tide coupled with monsoon rains, hail, snow, ice, 30 foot swells, breakers coming into the parking lot at the south jetty, and logs rolling everywhere in the water made us a bit nervous to get into the drink. We still had a grand time hanging out in the yurt, trying and failing to catch crabs, and walking to the beach to watch the storm.
Here are a few pictures.
