Vegas Strong


Nearly a month has gone by, and I'm still processing everything after my hometown of Las Vegas experienced a night of terror. It is like a small town, so it hurts to hear about friends who've lost loved ones. Or they know of others in recovery, still receiving treatment in hospitals. It reminds you again of how tomorrow is never guaranteed. It turns out, Mom decided to pass on free tickets to that festival and decided not to go the day before. *SIGH* It was certainly a shock to our vibrant, bright and wild city. My heart goes out to those who were impacted by the horrific events of that night. 

I'm proud of all the helpers and how the community came together. Images of folks waiting in lines to donate blood and donating supplies, etc. Las Vegas isn't just a stopover or a fun weekend trip. There are a lot of good, hard working (and good humored) people there, that I'm proud to know.

These dark days keep happening, and it's up to us to find a solution. #VegasStrong
