August Ultimate Coffee Date Vegas Baby
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
I am currently enjoying my coffee in Vegas Baby. The hubs and I came out for a few days to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Why does someone have a birthday party in Vegas in August? It’s hotter than hades here but you know, it’s a “dry heat”. Uh huh sure. Anyway, I don’t think there will be any outdoor running this weekend but they have a fantastic hotel gym with lots of classes that I am already taking full advantage of. I hope to get a chance to try out the rock climbing wall today.

With all of the excitement of Chicago RnR the past few weeks, I forgot to mention that I have joined the ranks of Bibrave. I always see lots of bloggers posting fun things they have the opportunity to participate in and try out. I figured hey why not?
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
It seems like everyday is one of those made up “national” something day. We seem to have days for lasagna, mint chocolate chip ice cream, tomatoes etc. You name it, there is a day! My burning questions are-who makes up these days? How do you find out when they are? Is there some list of these “national” days somewhere that I am not aware of? Appreciate any info on that lol. At least we don’t have to buy people Hallmark cards for them ha.
It’s been fun catching up over the August Ultimate Coffee Date. I have been blabbing away and now it’s your turn. If we were having coffee today, what would you tell me? Do you embrace all of these “national” holidays for silly things and foods?

Oh, I’ve only tried a rock climbing wall once. It was hard but fun. I think there are different levels of legitimacy for National ___ Days. Google must have a list somewhere. 😉
ha I am sure there is a list somewhere just seems like everyday is a day for something 🙂
Congrats on the Bibrave gig! Enjoy Vegas 🙂
Thanks and so far so good!
The Bib Rave gig should be fun! Congrats! Yeah Vegas is like a blast furnace this time of year. But still fun! Enjoy!
A blast furnace indeed! Spending most of the time indoors but that’s ok
Congrats on the Bib Rave gig! Enjoy Vegas 🙂
Thanks! Yes Vegas is fun I am just spending most of my time indoors for a change
Enjoy Vegas! Who needs to go outside–there’s so much to do there! Thanks for coffee.
There is a ton to do here even if you never leave the room!
Oooh! Have fun in Vegas, baby! I love Vegas, even though I am not a gambler. I just love the desert. One of my favorite sights is to see all the lights of Vegas as you approach the city after hiking in the desert all day. I once went running right down the strip. Great place for a vacay!
I wish it was cool enough to hike bc I have never done that here. I am getting my workout indoors this week
Hope you get to try out that rock climbing today! Enjoy
Thanks so far so good!
Yay! I hope you have fun with the rock climbing! Congrats on your ambassadorship! I’ve always wondered who comes up with all the different food holidays out there too, haha. It’s nice having random reasons to celebrate though!
Yes it’s always nice to have random reasons to celebrate but I always feel like I am the last to know 🙂
I recognize that shirt!!! Hope you’re having fun in Vegas….maybe you’ll see Elvis!
Ha ha I have seen a few Elvis!
Congrats on BibRave Pro. It sounds like a fun group, but I have too many direct ambassadorships to do it. Looking forward to seeing what cool things you get.
Thanks me too I was ready to do some new stuff. 🙂
Just Google “National Days” or “National Day Calendar” or something similar and you’ll find them.
Have fun this weekend and thanks for the linkup!
yes I will do a search for these very important days 🙂
I think I took that pic! Or I was sitting next to you 🙂 That was fun!
Ooh – Bib Rave Pro looks so cool – I’m looking forward to hearing all about it!
Yes I think you did take that photo!Thanks for joining us for coffee today
Lol, this cracks me up! Major Hubs gets so annoyed with all of those ‘national’ such and such days as well!
Vegas is a lot of fun, but I agree ….August would not be my first choice of month’s to visit. But hey, it’s her birthday and she wants to party in Vegas, who are you to say no, right????
Have fun!
Something like that yes! 🙂
The rock climbing wall sounds fun 🙂
so fun happy I tried it!
I have been to Vegas in August. But we came from Austin, where it was 90s and quite humid — dry heat really does make a huge difference to me, anyway.
Ok, I have a question about Bibrave — I know you have to post at least 3 reviews before you apply. Can they be older reviews? Obviously I have my most recent race, but the rest were all from 2017!
Enjoy the rest of your time in Vegas. We love Vegas which is part of why it was my first half!
I had not posted one in a few years so I am guessing yes. I would apply!
I wonder the same thing about national XYZ days! And how do you make them an actual thing haha
I know seems like there is something everyday!
Congrats on joining Bibrave! That will be fun and you are a great fit for them.
I’d like to go to Vegas someday, but preferably not in August!
Ha I would recommend going another time it was toasty!
