Vegas Baby!

The National State Farm Convention was in Vegas this year. Kim and I had a really nice time. He went to Farm meetings in the morning and then we had the rest of the day to hang out. We saw the Blue Man Group and drove to Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam.
We had a nice view of the pool from our hotel at Caesar's Palace

 Kim is in this Asian Agent group/club. He always jokes that he's the least asian of any of them. They wanted to go out for something authentic so we went to a Chinatown part of Vegas and ate at a very authentic Korean Barbecue place. I'm so glad that we got to go because I wanted to eat at a place like this when we were in Seoul and we just never found anything, and it's nice to be with other people who know whats going on when it's this authentic. It's kind of like a hibachi type buffet, but you cook your own meat at the table.


 Hoover Dam. This was actually the 2nd time I've seen the dam. I went on a random trip to Vegas 12 or so years ago with some of my basketball friends from college and we drove out to the Hoover Dam in our Rent-A-Wreck. Ahhh.. those were the days :)





 The last night of the convention, State Farm had a big carnival ending with a concert and fireworks at Sam Boyd Stadium.
