I was just out on the lake on Sunday — my first visit there. Quite a beautiful place — I had NO idea!

Thanks, Sherry! Before we lived here all I knew about it was the Strip, too. I had no idea there was anything beyond it but desert and cactus.

It’s so beautiful! It’s great to see stuff like this because to the outsider it’s so common to think of hotel strips, neon lights, and a lot of desert when you think of Vegas (well, that and Elvis!). It’s so nice to see someplace that is serene and gorgeous like this!

Hi Kim! I was really glad it was so nice for you while you were here! The heat gets really miserable when it hits its stride. I hope you were able to get everything done that you needed to!

I was in Vegas for your “chilly” weather and it was better than the 107 that greeted me. Flew over Lake Mead on the way home and saw the visible signs of water depletion. It was a beautiful sight none the less.
