| What's the Las Vegas Connection?

Bob
Lau (1976), webmaster of the Midnight Sun
Online (MSO),
relocated
from Germantown, MD
to Las Vegas, NV in 1998, from
where
he maintains the MSO. Numerous Peary alumni
have
visited,
and we
try to
meet-up with alums if schedules allow.
This
page
serves as an
archive of Peary classmates
that
have
visited. There is
a handful
of staff and
student alumni who also
reside in Las Vegas,
including Debra Burkhead (1966), "Coach"
Duane Black (Staff),
Joyce
Saylor (1973), Lynn Sterling (1977),
Dan Fritz
(1972),
Austin Reardon (1984), Allen Erisman (1978),
Tony Tyler (1974), Robin Moore (1977), and a few others!

Hotels from the San Diego
Union-Tribune newspaper online -

those
of you who remember "Vegas" TV series with Dan Tana (Robert Urich) driving around in a T-bird
convertible....
that's where this is. "Downtown" is not the current modern "Strip"
(below), about 4
