    Happy (belated) birthday, Mas! :dance:

    Any Nice Peeps been to Vegas and can advise on things to see/do outside the city? Within driving distance - for a day trip. Been looking at Hoover Dam/Lake Mead, Red Rock Canyon. Nice? Other ideas?

    Hoover Dam is meant to be a good trip. We saw it from a plane and it looked worthy of a visit.

    You could drive to the airport and fly to the south rim of the Grand Canyon?

    Hoover Dam is a good place to visit, only a short drive from LV

    We stopped there on our way from Scottsdale (Az) via the Grand Canyon (the road SR 93 went right over the Dam) to LV.

    Henderson was a nice City to visit, and pretty close.

    Question. If you'd had a boss like sadistic boss how much would you price your silence on your relationship with him for?

    I think if I was proactively offered money in that situation I would probably accept it but unlikely to try to leverage it in any way to get more. That said I have never had a sadistic boss so I don't genuinely know how I would act.

    There are a number of establishments of interest to "gentlemen" which are not on the main strip. I assume that is what you mean by "outside the city".
