A few more blasts from the past. Two Las Vegas hotels and casinos that no longer exist, featuring marquees for shows that have long since closed.
The Frontier hotel was especially proud of their great magic show, Siegfried and Roy, which we saw during that long-ago visit. One of the best Vegas shows ever! As many of you know, the show was forced to close years later when Roy was severely injured and almost killed by one of the show’s white tigers. Roy just passed away a few weeks ago.
A visit to the Desert View Watchtower on the eastern portion of the Grand Canyon’s South Rim. Constructed in the 1930s, it offers magnificent canyon views and a tie to the Native American history of the Canyon.
I was visiting a friend, and this was the view from their house. I could understand why they built their house facing this direction. I was taken by the beauty!

Blast from the past, indeed. For several months in 1969 I watched Siegfried & Roy from the wings of the Americana Hotel stage in Puerto Rico, as mysterious in touching distance as from the audience.
