Well, well, . . . well, . . . it must be nice to watch a storm from the comfort of one's 35th floor room.
Meanwhile, poor old DonDiego is trying to navigate down a flooded Eastern Avenue on his way with teechur to a Mexican restaurant on Tropicana. (teechur needs to ingest some Mexican cuisine when in the West, as the quality of southwestern food in Appalachia is lacking.)
The rain is relentless and an occasional downpour is blinding, . . . one is barely able to see the lane markings; and the right-lane is flooded all the way; and all the intersections are flooded; and drivers in high-wheeled vehicles just plow into the standing water dowsing all nearby automobiles and pedestrians and endangering themselves and others. And the lightning is less attractive down here at ground level when it arrives simultaneously with the thunder.
But, . . .never fear, . . . DonDiego successfully found a path on lesser known roads to his destination. And the targeted restaurant is closed; apparently a victim of the current economic turn-down, . . . and already vandalism is apparent in the busted out and boarded windows.
But, . . . once again overcoming adversity, . . . DonDiego makes his way to the Palace Station. teechur and he had some years previously enjoyed the Mexican offerings at Cabo in Santa Fe Station and DonDiego has learned there is now a Cabo at Palace Station.
The meal, although ingested at least 90 minutes later than originally planned is excellent. teechur and DonDiego are both satisfied. Sleep comes easy this night.
But now, as the morning grows long, DonDiego must make his way to the Las Vegas Hilton for a hard day's work handicapping Week 5 of the NFL.
DonDiego wishes all "Good Day !"
