The Emmys

Hi Everybody!

I am very excited today. I am writing this on the first morning of a two day trip to the Emmy Awards. We very humbly accepted an invitation to do Gelousy Gel Nails for the nominees, presenters and special invited guests. It is really fun so far. We landed at LAX two hours late after missing our first flight. The kind people at US Airways put us on the next flight out.
Then it was off to find a taxi. I was a bit familiar with the area because I had viewed it from Google Earth. But to be on the ground and drive by all of these streets you hear about on movies and TV is a surreal experience. Being a small town boy from Arizona it was a bit weird.

We pulled up to the amazing Sofitel Los Angles. This is one of the best hotels I have ever been in. The service is amazing, Breakfast this morning was incredible. We usually get room service because it seems we are always short on time. The breakfast came up in about 15 minutes and there was a tropical flower, fresh peaches and small fruit smoothies all that were complimentary, served with our breakfast.

Last night we ate at the restaurant in the hotel called Simon LA. Kerry Simon had battled on one of my favorite shows Iron Chef and won. He was serving the same appetizer he served on Iron Chef. It was a Kobe Beef burger that was half kobe and half bacon. It came with french-fries and a vanilla shake. It was the best hamburger I have ever had.

Our station is next to Prolinc, who was also honored to be invited. Prolinc will be using four incredible products that complement the Gel Nail and Gel toes that we will be doing. Cuticle Eliminator, Callus Eliminator, Dry Heal Eliminator and their sugar scrub. These products are some of the best I have seen. They are so easy to use and are very effective.

We are off now for our first day. I will post some pictures soon!

Google Earth

I am addicted to Google Earth. I have spent many hours looking up things like Chernobyl, The Great Wall of China, my house, my office, the airport, the grand canyon, this weird Chinese military base that has a small scale mountain range reproduced with snow capped mountains and rivers, a federal prison near my house, The Panama Canal, USS Arizona in Hawaii, my old office in Sedona, Arizona.

It is one of the most cool programs I have ever seen.
