Expertise

We spent much time traveling through Nevada, while going from our home in Las Vegas to our home in Idaho. We have travelled extensively through the Nevada "outback", and would love to share information with anyone who needs it.

Experience in the area

I was an AllExperts.com "expert" from the inception of AllExperts.com. I enjoyed answering questions, and always received very good to excellent critiques.

Education/Credentials

College - Business Vocational Ed - Travel Agent School

What do you like about this subject?

It is fun to share my knowledge of my home town, and the areas which I am familiar with.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

There is always something new to learn.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Other than in the tourist area, Las Vegas is really a early to bed kind of town because of the heat in the summer. Many grocery stores are open 24 hours a day as we have so much shift work here in town.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Against popular theory, many,if not most, of the locals DO gamble...............but play a lot of penny machines and low limit table games. We go out to eat in casinos, go to movies in casinos, go to shows in casinos, bowl in casinos, socialize in casinos and gamble in casinos.
