Finally I hope to get back to railroading soon as now all my previous business engagements are completed.  I attended CES 2008 in Las Vegas this past week and all I can say is what a show and what a city.  50,000+ booths and 2 million square feet of floor space.  Lots to see and do and almost too much to possible take in within a 4 day window.  Here are a few pictures I took for you to try and get a sense of the enormity of everything in Las Vegas.

Nothing like having a 150″ Plasma in your house.

New York New York is where I stayed.  Only $300US a night.  What a deal.  The free drinks while gambling helped to justify the cost..  HAHA…

I great view from the room 15 stories up.  That MGM sign is 30 stories tall itself.  Crazy!!

Neat shot of the monorail coming into the station with the Hilton and Stratosphere in the background.

Oceans 11 anyone.  The Bellagio is a sight to see.

I hope to get started back on some cleaning and than continue on with the layout.  I will post images shortly and update you on my projects.

Hard to get back to model railroading after a trip like that!

I don’t think I could fit a 150″ TV in my living room. It sure would put my 37″ to shame.

I hear you! It was a lot of fun on the business of course.
