What to do? What to Do?

When you don't live in Las Vegas, sometimes it seems like all there is here is Casinos. Not true. There are MANY things to do that won't have you sitting in front of a slot machine for hours on end.

Before moving here in 1989, I visited Las Vegas at least twice every year since I was born. My family on my Mother's side has lived here since the late 1930's, so coming to Las Vegas wasn't a trip to see the bright lights of the strip, it was a visit to Nana's (Grandma's) house. In fact, we rarely went to casinos except to eat at a restaurant or buffet.

We did stuff out of the casinos and off the strip. We went to Lake Mead to feed the fish. We went to Red Rock to *feed apples to the wild burros. We went to Mount Charleston and the Valley of Fire.

In other than words, we GOT OFF THE STRIP!

In the coming weeks and months we plan on visiting these and other places with our family. We will take take lots of pictures and share them here with you! We want to show there are lots of things to do, especially with families, if you Get Off the Strip!

*Feeding the wild burros is now illegal and we do not feed them anymore! We do not recommend you feed the wild burros!
