Okay, the lights are in position and dialed in. Now all I need is a model. |

@alwayscoffee You are, are you? How quickly can you get here? {:-> |

Spent the day with model Krystal from Canada. Shot in the morning, played Vegas tourists all afternoon. A good time was had by both. |
20:51 |
As I'm leaving MGM to meet my model friend for dinner, I see a stunning blonde coming in. T'was my friend, who forgot where we're meeting. |

Still sad about the loss of Rum Jungle. But Shanghai Lilly was pretty darn good. Now if the slots would be a little kinder... |

A model I shot over a year ago wants me to delete her photos. Nothing remotely risqué in them. Am I wrong in wanting to say no? |
00:21 |
@Thanaz She's afraid she's lose a job she's up for if they find out. I do have a release. As for her bad mouthing me, I can live with it. |

Car covered in snow this morning. Gonna be an interesting drive out of Arizona and into California. |
09:51 |
Last night I was attacked by a tumbleweed. This morning my gas filler door was frozen shut. Fun times. |
09:52 |
Back in California. Lunch in Barstow, dinner in Tehachapi. |
10:51 |
Brief stop at Amboy Crater. Will look it up on Wikipedia to find out what I just saw. |
12:17 |
Hey! You know that hour I lost in Bullhead City? It was waiting for me in Laughlin. Funny it's always in the last place you look. |
14:58 |
Just arrived in Tehachapi, where the streets are sheets of ice and the intersections are freezing rivers. But at least the sky's blue. |
20:36 |
Walked 4 blocks each way in 27F, icy streets & wind to dinner. Why, you may ask. Maybe to remind myself why I don't live in the snow belt. |

Seem to have lost an hour somewhere between California & Arizona. But if it has to happen, Bullhead City's a good place to lose it. |
