Business has brought me to Las Vegas many times in the last decade. Each time my interest has been in the fanciful facades and over the top attractions I witnessed at every turn, My all time favorite was the Treasure Island lagoon, complete with fighting ships and a delightful pirate village fronting the street. In the last years the trend in newer properties is a much slicker, modern look, devoid of the elements I love. With this trip I noticed the wonderful themed facades are now quickly disappearing including the Treasure Island village.

The World of Concrete show has been interesting thus far with so much to see. We've found a few new things we will be giving a try in the future. Tomorrow we return for one last look before we jump on a plane to head back to quiet little Yarrow. After our short visit to the very noisy Las Vegas I can hardly wait.
