While in Las Vegas, we like eating breakfast at a local restaurant chain called Blue Berry Hill. I really like Blue Berry Hill because they have good food and it is reasonably priced. And, it is nice to get off the strip. Plus, they offer Huevo Rancheros which are eggs fixed southwestern style.

Now, when you are on the strip, you see people from all over the world. But, when you are off the strip, you get to see some of the locals, so to speak.

One morning in particular, we noticed a man in his twenties riding a bicycle. Seeing a bicycle in Las Vegas is unusual in and of its self. And while I am sure that bicycles do exist in Las Vegas, this was the first time that I had seen one.

But, what made this bicycle rider more interesting was the fact that he was steering with one hand and balancing a case of beer on the handlebars with the other hand. And, this was no ordinary case of beer, it was a case of long neck glass bottles in a big cardboard box.

Now, I wouldn’t think that a bicycle would be the ideal means of transportation in Las Vegas given the temperature and the heavy traffic. And, I wouldn’t think that it would be the ideal means of transportation for a case of beer. However, I guess if you haven’t got a car, you make do with what you do have.

Judging by the smile on his face, he was either looking forward to enjoying his purchase or had already enjoyed his purchase and was looking forward to returning the empties for more.

Life is good!
