Wendover Fun

Isn't that the slogan? While we did have fun, it was not because we spent all day/night in a smoke-filled casino at the slots, though we probably smelled like we did.

This guys sure looks like he's having fun though, eh? See what BYU will do to a person? :)

We went with my in-laws, and we stayed at the Rainbow Hotel - sounds

charming, doesn't it? We ate at the Rainforest Buffet, which featured Alaskan King Crab (Yummy), along with many other kinds of seafood, and our hotel room had mirrors in it (yikes...), and we had a great time.

While I'd like to say that the reason we went was to get a buffet that was better than Chuck-A-Rama, I will tell you the real reason.

We went to see the wonderful, hilarious, and very talented Bill Cosby.

It was fantastic! He was so funny and played off the crowd the entire time. The way he does it - makes people laugh is so clever. What he did was tell stories. He tells story after story until you are in stitches from laughing so hard. I wish I could have recorded some of his stuff from the show. He did do his famous Dentist bit, but other than that, I had never heard most of his stuff. He talked mostly about his family, a lot about his wife... "You get to a point in marriage where you just don't say ANYTHING. Because it doesn't matter what you say." He has been married for 44 years, and though he laughed about his wife and told all sorts of stories, he loves her. That is obvious. I loved everything about his show - the way he played off the audience, the facial expressions, the way he made you feel, his stage presence. He came out in sweats and crocs. He was comfortable. He just sat down and started talking - no crazy jokes, nothing inapropriate. He wanted to just talk to us. It was great! I believe his first line was, "Here we are.... 110 miles from... somewhere."

If you get the chance to see him, take it. It is well worth the time and money. We loved it, and you will too.
