Outside of Sin City

But close by

I was able to make it to this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in early January. I try to make CES an annual event having attended fairly regularly since 1978. The last few years I’ve chosen to go to the show for two days and spend a few other days visiting other places nearby.

Red Rock Canyon is a national conservation area and is located less than 20 miles from Las Vegas proper.

Red Rock mountainous area with many canyons and perfect for visitors who enjoy the outdoors with hiking. It’s hilly paths are attractive to bikers.

You don’t have to gamble out here. You’ll be a winner just by enjoying this peaceful and scenic area.

Alison Krauss Concert

and Union Station

Last night we enjoyed our last outdoor concert of the summer.

The venue was the well-known Frederick Meijer Garden Amphitheater in Grand Rapids. FMG is the Best Sculpture Garden in the USA and its amphitheater host dozens of concerts during the warm weather.

We luckily secured two tickets to the sold out concert for Alison Krauss and the Union Station. Having been a fan for many years, I was eager to hear her voice in the live.

Below are a few of their songs that I was able to capture.

We were sitting on the lawn more than 50 yards away but my compact camera performed well recording the video at a distance with quite good quality audio. Excuse several focus issues and attendees walking in front of me.

Restless
Let Me Touch You For A While
Paper Airplane
Forget About It
Angel Too Close
Gravity
Baby Now That I’ve Found You
Wish I Still Had You

Alison with a long, warm coat. The temperature was about 50 degrees and she has been used to the warmer weather in more southern venues.

Alison Krauss & Union Station

With this concert we’ve left the summer behind, having heard the fabulous voice of Alison Krauss and the talented music of the Union Station. This group really takes bluegrass to the highest level.
