Las Vegas has alot going for it...that may surprise more than a few folks!
I believe, if my recollection is correct, that Clark County spends more per
capita on library and museusms than anyother county in the country.  There
is lots of venacular architecture to explore (the Venacular Architecture
forum met there a year or so ago) not to mention the major art collection
located at the new casino (sorry the name is slipped my mind);  neon art;
the University and so on....

Also I understand that lodging and meal expenses, and airfares are very
reasonable...something I think we can all appreciate.  Just my two cents
worth!  Mary
