11/29/08: Red Rocks & The Strip

Getting ready to climb at Pine Creek Canyon...



Hiked out into the canyon to climb Olive Oil, but when Jon got to the top of the first pitch, there was a huge party line going up, so he climbed back down...




Packing up to hike back out...



The view out the canyon...


Can you find the guy soloing down the tower in this photo?


Hiked back out of the canyon and hit The Gallery for some quick sport routes...




At the end of the day, we had dinner on the strip...
Waiting for our table...


Making funny faces...



Mmmm... this bread is goooooood.....


We went to "O" at the Bellagio. This is after the show ended...


Goofing around on the strip after midnight...

Took a tour at NASA the day before the Endeavor was to launch...

Fred's co-workers, Gilbert and Jonathan...


I spy with my little eye....


This is the "crawlway" - the road they use to get the Endeavor to the pad. It's huge...



Gilbert, being goofy...


There were gators everywhere...


Inside the visitor's center...
