This blog has been created by and for the Kinast Family. As we begin to grow and branch out, we thought it might be fun to create a place where we could learn and share about one another. In this blog, you will hear stories about funny situations we have been in, current status on family, things that have helped us to grow as people and other positive impacts that we have each experienced in our lives. So, sit back, take a few moments to relax, and learn about those you love who will always love and support you in your life...

Theresa's Adventure - Las Vegas

Chris here, writing for Theresa (since she's at work currently). She's been busy at the Whistling Kettle and working on her first online class but in-between it all she traveled to Las Vegas to join her sister at a food science conference. They ate fancy food (her sister's company funds it as "research") and Theresa visited all kinds of places during the day. Pictures of the National Atomic Testing Museum are on her phone, but she reports it was very good. She also traveled to the Hoover Dam:

She reports its scale is difficult to convey, and we both wondered how it must have looked when the water level was higher (notice the coloring on the cliffs behind the dam).
Since she didn't have access to a car, she took a bus tour. Construction (on bus parking) meant she didn't get to walk across the dam herself.
One evening they visited the "Neon Boneyard:" 

Because people go to Las Vegas to pretend they'r somewhere else


 Finally, for the Frasier fans, one of the hotels had a ceiling with Chihuly glass, aka, the same artist who made that ugly multi-colored vase that shows up behind the couch in later seasons:
