    Rather large amount of black youths hanging around on the strip now mainly between MGM & PH handing out their "music" - if you fall into their target range they actually offer you drugs. Got offered class A drugs 3 times in broad daylight. Saw them being very disrespectful to young women passing by and causing agro with groups of guys in the evenings. Saw the local cops moving them on a couple of times... Strip seems to be getting seedier & seedier each year I go.
    A lot more homeless hanging around but at least they are peaceful.

    Oh, man...I have been offered several CDs by those guys...now I don't know what they were saying about me! :)

    We fly on Wednesday and the last 36 hours I have been exhibiting the early symptoms of a cold. Not happy at all. Am hoping that that First Defense spray actually does what it's supposed to...I do not want to be sick in Vegas. :(
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    If you have to get a cold, hope it's like the one I've got - started Friday but I think I'm virtually over it already xx

    He could try Springs Preserve. You can reach it by bus and it is close to Meadows Mall. The LV natural history museum is there too.

    Is it animal marmalade and jam? LOL:rotfl: It looks quite a fun place from their website and fairly educational.
    Went to Old Nevada a few years back to Bonny Springs ranch where there's a few animals and horse riding available; as well as an old cowboy town complete with theatrical public hangings etc. A bit of a mish mash of a place back then but quite a good day out.

    I didn't think much of Bonnie Springs, thought it was a bit dirty and the animals looked miserable. Spring Mountain Ranch was lovely. Such a tranquil place with a lake and natural spring.

    I'm not sure I can possibly be more amused with myself than I am right now.
