I Love Nevada. We got a bunch of SBS's out there, they probably aren't awake yet.
I kid around that Vegas is my base for my West Coast Operations. I'm out there at least once or twice a year for either gaming or vacation exploring the desert southwest. It's a great launching point to visit the Grand Canyon, Death Valley, LA, Southern Utah, etc. Plus the adult side makes the trip fun too, what's up Crazy Horse Too, Spearment Rhino, and Olympic Garden (aka OG's)!!! Still need to get out to see the new Wynn.
I did finally make it up to Reno this past May and I was pretty disappointed with the town and I went in with low expectations. But as always, visiting nearby Lake Tahoe makes up for anything.
For the real beauty, you have to get away from this end of the state and go see the Tahoe area.
I've decided to give Vegas a try for a year or so and see what it's like to live in a big city, although I like it better as a vacation destination, I think.
Moved to Vegas from Wisconsin ten years ago after my husband died. Been working in the casino industry since I got out here. Love the weather (I know, I'm crazy but it beats snow, freezing temperatures and mosquitoes). No, I don't gamble. Can't - I design the software that runs the slot machines. I'm addicted to my S50 and the iPOD junkies in the office are jealous because I have my MP3s and satellite radio. The home dock works great in my office window.
Sin City here ! I know there are more of us here too!
Ilive 70 miles east of Vegas on I-15, Great town. (Mesquite) 6 champingship
golf courses.
The city has a population of near 15,000 and near 3000 hotel/motel rooms as well as 4 major casinos. Weather beats Vegas as it a bit lower in elevation.
I have 4 Sirius subscriptions
A real old Jensen with the wired remote
2 H2A's one version 1 and the other version 2
1 Visor
All work well. The old jensen works well but display is slow to load.
Hawthorne, NV in the house, and believe me, I love Nevada and will never leave again. Of cours I love Vegas, absolutely great golf. Usually go down to Mesquite once a year for a golf trip.

Hawthorne? My wife is from Hawthorne, we were just out there. Her grandmother died and was buried in that cemetary out by the highway. Dude you live in the desert! After driving from Vegas I popped up the road and bought my Sportster.

God does not believe in Athiests. Therefore they do not exist.

Yes, I definitely live in the desert, Yep, cemetary is right across the street from McDonalds...how fitting. Who was your wife's Grandma? Who's your wife, it seems like everyone knows everyone from Hawthorne.
