Straight out of Vegas - up to the airport to pick up the car, 'b' line for Walmart (your friendly camping support network) to get kitted out with the camping gear and we're good to go!
And here we are! First day camping in Red Rock Canyon, just a few miles outside of Las Vegas. Notice the tent, aka the Hilton, that's because the last tent was a 2.5 man tent, this little beauty is a 4 man tent, which means there's enough room for the big nest and the en-suite. There was one slight problem with this campsite though, lovely as it was has anyone noticed a certain lack of shade?
A little celebration at the end of a little hike into the red canyon. No - this is not one of my 'long-arm' shots!
This was a beautiful little spot overlooking the canyon floor, the second picture is the red rock of 'Red Rock' Canyon fame!!
Another beautiful view back into the canyon.
I've decided to call this picture 'Grass', the inspiration just came to me one night.
5:30am and the rising sun shows off the different layers in the rock formation, sandstone and limestone our book reckons!
From the last blog, Spock was actually saying: "Jim, leave Uhuru alone and get over here, I need help with the nudges"

I notice there was nee response from the outsourcer to your last question. Google's not all it's cracked up to be!!
Oh aye, and another thing......that last tent of yours for 2.5 men. What does that actually mean? 2 men and a madget?
The Sandersfields signing in and getting ready to comment....cup-o-tea question please?
Ha'way Sandersfields....there have been three cuppa tea questions so far! Get with the program, man! The rest of us have drunk a couple of potfulls already!
Re: PJ's comment....Yes, Keith, pray tell, just how was camping with a madget?
PJ, if you haven't noticed in all this blogging, Sissy J and myself have a strategy in winning the cup o tea questions. I allow her to answer the ones that require no actual facts and I answer the ones that require many hours of research.Good to see you on the blog, The Outsourcer.
I apologize for not answering the question about how many LED lamps there are on the Vegas strip, The answer is over 12 million. I didn't think there would be a real answer until I looked it up. The Outsourcer.
Here's a cup of tea question (aye, roles reversed!). Did you know that this is one of the few remaining places in the US where wild ________ can still be found?
(Hint: Donny Osmond once sang a song about them and we would all join in a particular part of the refrain.
Well, did you see any?
