No, I’m not here in Las Vegas for some sort of important navigation technology trade show/conference. I’m just here with my wife for a little birthday getaway, “sans kids”.
But just ’cause I’m stuck out here in the desert, that doesn’t mean I won’t find lots of nautical subject matter to share with my readers. For instance, Captain Richard Rodriguez over at BitterEnd will be happy to hear that I’ve been wearing my “Knotty” hat all over town…
And even though there isn’t any navigable water for hundreds of miles in every direction, there is still plenty to remind us of things nautical: Slot machines!
And finally, to ensure that this post addresses Navagear’s crucial “gear and gadgets” mandate, check this bit of product brand placement, at Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville Las Vegas. How much did Garmin pay to mount radomes on all these fishing boat/dining booths, eh?

No water? your next to one of the biggest lakes in the west. The tuor of the power plant is good, you should check it out.
Yeah, your grandpa did some work on the power plant, and, as well, worked on the proving grounds in another trip down.
See you later tonight!
All is well.

Oh, I KNEW I was gonna get in trouble for that. So let’s just say I meant “water that is connected to the planet’s maritime infrastructure”, but I didn’t want to type that much!
