My girlfriend dragged me here while we were vacationing in Vegas. I have to say it really is beautiful. I mean what a marvel of human technology! I especially enjoyed having one foot in Nevada and one foot in Arizona (yes I'm a geek!). I really had a good time even in the smoldering heat. It's always crowded but there's lots of parking. Just be prepared to do some walking and dodge some cars!
Just for fun...one of my pics was taken at hoover dam. Can you guess which one??? :-)
