My wife and I visited the museum/boneyard yesterday during their open house. Rather than having to make a reservation and pay $15, during the open house we were able to just show up and only pay a $5 admission.
We didn't want to wait in line, so we opted out of taking pictures and were able to skip the long picture promise line. (signing an agreement that you weren't going to sell the pics)
I have heard about the boneyard in the past and always thought it would be a neat place to visit. I was right.
The place was smaller than I expected, some of the areas were roped off, and many of the signs were stacked in front of each other. However, we still got to see many, many historic signs up close and personal. I recognized a lot of the signs from when I was a kid.
My favorite sign was the duck. I'm not sure where it was from, but it was really cute. My wife liked the big pool player. She was curious about where a big skull sign came from, so she asked one of the volunteers...who turned out to be Misti Y.! It was my first time meeting a Yelper (let alone Misti) so I was excited. Anyway, it turned out the skull was from Treasure Island.
After we walked through the boneyard, we stopped by the park which is quite small. The neat thing about the park is the sign that was designed for it which was based on several old Las Vegas signs.
Definitely a fun trip and a great deal!
