hi hi hi!!!
Feb. 16th, 2017 11:37 amI survived VegasCon! Only lost a few *muffle* dollars on video poker and slots, but gained a shit ton of memories that were of the most excellent variety. Not only thanks to J2 and all the other amazing guests, but with the wonderful people I hung out with throughout the week. And it was a lot ... like 20 something? ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rozearkana was keeping track prior to the con of who we knew that was attending and we got to 20 ... then some others popped around that we said hi to, had dinners, drinks, something or other with.
I roomed withrozearkana and kelleigh, and it was just the most mellow and lovely experience sharing a space for that long. We also sort of became the hang-out place and folks came by on Thursday for an SPN watch and pizza party, including souslelys, vatititech, bewarethesmirk, fiercelynormal, lavishsqualor, cherie_morte, and a bunch of others whose LJ names I can't remember at the moment. But it was most excellent to watch it with company and hear all the groans and moans and whimpers and laughter, and just experience it with a big group.
On Monday, we had a van and six of us trekked down to the South Rim (heh) of the Grand Canyon! I had never been! Vegas, I've seen a half dozen times before, but this was a totally different ball game! Such amazing nature that I knew was there, but never thought about the full scope of it. Just utterly amazing. And somehow also terrifying? I mean, I hate heights, but I love roller coasters, so I thought I'd be really a-okay. But the spots where you can walk out on rocks hovering over the abyss? NOT COOL. Especially whencherie_morte climbed over the side to a ledge that I DID NOT KNOW WAS THERE OR HOW BIG IT WAS AND I FREAKED OUT AND YELLED AT HER. She likes to laugh at me about it. But it really did terrify me.
Not so terrifying, however, are a few pics snapped throughout our time ...
