And, for your spiritual entertainment (and the main reason I now call Las Vegas "Sacred City"), check out the Spiritual Life Center at 1420 S. Harmon. It's a hub of soulful activity.

If you like outdoor activities, National Geographic Adventure rated LV the #1 best place to live for the myriad of outdoor activities locally and within a short drive. Here's a link:
Las Vegas - National Geographic Adventure Magazine There are all the city amenities, you can pick and choose the best of the "tourist" shows (like Phantom, the Producers, Spamalot) and other exhibitions (Bodies, Titanic), along with local theater, local festivals, local bars (yes, karaoke), and yes, there are go-carts and putt-putt. There's also places for quad runners and 4-wheeling. For weekend trips you are an easy drive to LA or San Diego, not to mention the national parks in Utah and Arizona. |

I moved here about a year ago with my Jeep. Funds have been too low to justify a day of wheeling, but I've looked around a bit at what's available. I've seen Nellis Dunes - is that open to Jeeps? Every time I've driven by, it's only been ATVs using it. Do you know of other areas/trails open to off road vehicles? I plan on hooking up with Vegas Valley 4 Wheelers when I'm ready to hit the trail again, but would like to do some homework on the local trails and whatnot first. For some reason, I haven't been able to find a whole lot online.

Like a poster said above, a lot of locals do not gamble very much, just light gambling, and i've never heard of any crazed addicted gambler mugging anyone. As for the sin city aspect, if someone thinks it is, then i guess it is for them. For the rest of us, we live in neighborhoods just like anywhere else in the USA, and the gambling is just one small section down on the strip and downtown, with some local casino's sprinkled here and there. |
