2015 marks the 20th anniversary of the show Voyager, so today we are blessed to have the entire cast (minus Kes). Robert Beltran and Michael Westmore recreate (on stage) Chakotay's facial tattoo. At this year's convention, we are also celebrating the orinial series episode (City on the Edge of Forever); we have both William Shatner and the Dame herself Joan Collins. We also attended panels for bith Terry Farrell and Michael Dorn. The evening ended with a spectacular performance by the Neveda Pops, directed by Richard McGee, with guest conductor Dennis McCarthy and guest singer James Darren.

Sunday 08/09
One of the saddest days is always Sunday; the last day of the convention. We still have a full day of panels and events. My friend Chuck and I final got our pictures in the Borg alcoves. The panels I attended were John de Lancie, George Takei, Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton and Brent Spiner. The day ended with the Rat Pack. The Rat Pack is a wonderful musical sitcom; there is singing, jokes and dancing.

Sunday 08/09
Deb, Rob, Chuck and I all stayed an extra day, instead of going home on Monday; we went home on Tuesday. We all ventured out to the Pinball Museum (no photos from there), the Hard Rock Hotel (to see the Journey display) and then we drove out to Red Rock Canyon.
