Las Vegas Tidbit - #1

Flying out this evening!! I thought I would do a little series that will post while I'm away. I feel like I haven't been posting as much as I would like, so hopefully this will help me get back into it.

Fun Fact

The Las Vegas Strip is not actually in Las Vegas the city (or Las Vegas proper). The Strip is found in Clark County, Nevada; adjacent to, but outside the city limits. The Strip lies within the unincorporated townships of Paradise and Winchester. An unincorporated area is a region of land that is not a part of any municipality and is therefore not subject to or taxed by a municipal government

They just want your money but they have to get you in somehow...
The Mirage has both an Aquarium and large Tropical Rainforest in its main casino/hotel that anyone can wander around and look at for free, 24/7!

Great Quote
"Las Vegas was and is a hard town that will make you pay for your inability to restrain your desires.... If you have a weakness, Las Vegas will punish you."
