Thank you so much Eric and Kelly!
Thanks for posting Matt...
Yeah, I was lucky enough to be able to get to Vegas for my R&R with some of my very best friends...Matt, Shannon and Marge. While we were there we had the good fortune to head on over to Eric's place and see the little shack he's living in. I joke, because I can very easily say that this was the nicest and most impressive property I've ever seen...and I've been through Hurst Castle in California and the Breakers up in Newport, RI. Pictures really can't do this place justice. I did try however...mostly of the interior, and some of his stable of vehicles...not to be confused with his actual stables...lol. Eric's S.O., Kelly, took the time to walk us around and show us some of the highlights of the property...and it still took us an hour + to get the tour in.
I have to say though, as incredible as his place was, it paled in comparison to Eric and Kelly. You would be hard pressed to find better and more honest people out there. They really do enjoy just sharing what they have with friends, which is such a breath of fresh air. I count myself very blessed to have met them both and look forward to when I could pay back the kindness they showed me, and my friends.
Below are a few pictures that I took while there...
Fatboy's Tennis court...
An outdoor walkway right outside the pool room...on one of the houses in the complex....
Marge oggling a fully race ready, and raced, Lamborghini (was my pick of the litter)
The two Lamborghini Countache's...
the front door to the main house...
and the front foyer it leads to...
The snooker room...that's a 12' Reilly under the cover...
One part of the kitchen...
The espresso machine...wow...lol.
There are more pictures...if you follow this link they should be in there. Haven't added captions yet, so please bear with me. I'll get them added. ***EDIT the Captions on my photobucket album have been added as of about 8:30am Saturday morning!

Again, more than anything else, I was blown away by the hospitality shown to us by Eric and Kelly. I will most definitely make it a point to get to Vegas and see them once again; and hopefully be able to repay, in some fashion, the kindness they've shown us. Thanks Eric and Kelly for an unforgettable visit!
