New Years Eve - blasting fireworks in the Nevada desert


Getting ready for NewYears Eve Excitement!!


Going to go blow up fireworks in the Nevada Desert!

Blow up pounds of explosives!


Happy New Year!!



Here is the road stop where the blasting will take place.   Ops, is that a petrol tank?


This place sells everything....



Damn, it even has a casino!  and toliets!  gambling, liquor and blastin' stuff!  what else could you want on New Years Eve?

Now...let's take a look at the fireworks!


yep...I'd say they have a few to pick from...


It's Happy Hour!    Wooo-hoooo!!


God Almighty, we are gonna have some fun!!!


Looks like we are not the only ones - these are almost sold out!


This is gonna be totally insane, that's for sure!  


We gonna be bustin' some big balls, that's for sure!  


Gotta be sneaky...not suppose to be taking pictures in here...got yelled at once already, but, that ain't gonna stop me...


Let's do this!


Did I mention that the desert field where we will be setting these off, is right by the petrol station??  



Not bad, for amueturs!



We had some added excitement when some of the crackers backfired and went skidding across the parking lot - we are all diving out of the way!


Off to the bar with my crazy friends in Las Vegas...Happy New Year everyone!

Sydney - Last trip before Canada

Not to confuse you, but, here are some pictures of my trip to Sydney a few weeks before going to Canada....












No Australia trip would be complete without a picture of the famous Sydney opera house!

The hotel that I was staying at was in Milson's Point - in North Sydney, right next to the bridge...






The cyclists take one side of the bridge, the walkers, the other....

I have arrived....in a limo!!

I have the great fortune to get an assignment to work in Canada for a view months...so, I will show you all the beautiful and amazing things that this country has to offer....


And, yes, I was picked up from the airport in a limo....yeah, baby!!!   Keep in mind that I came from around of the world, and had had no sleep, so, needless to say, I am not looking my best.....but I was feeling my best riding around in the limo!
