Where in the U.S. is Sicky going now...

Well like a lot of you know i am in the military and i have been retraining into my new career field.

With that being said, I am going to be going to a new location next year at some point and that will be in Las Vegas. So what Olds nuts lives in the Vegas area and what is there to do out there, besides the obvious gambling.

Its ok I'm only about 6hrs away so others trip can be had for Olds get togethers! :-) All I know its dry heat, gambling or course, anything you can think of doing can probably be arranged, hookers part but you know thats a no-no, lots of shows to go see, great drunken camping in the desert, and generally in a good location for exploring natures beauties just pick a direction and drive. I pick a new home in Mar/Apr and Vegas is not one of them but I could get to the armpit of NV Falon! lolol (um no thanks)

I have only been a tourist in Las Vegas, and I will break the code of what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

I was there in January, so only saw limited car stuff.

There is a Cars and Coffee Las Vegas that had a good mix of modern and exotics and classics. I actually saw 3 Oldsmobiles when I was there.



And the owner obviously wasn't worried about tire wear.



There is also Shelby American near the speedway. You can take a tour of the car collection and the factory, or at least you could when I was there. I have heard that they are planning on moving part of the place (the car collection?) closer to the strip.

You can rent exotic cars for driving tours.

Hoover Dam isn't too far away either.

It is a nice drive up through Zion National Park, Bryce canyon, The arches national park, as well as the grand canyon... There are a lot of low priced buffets to eat at in Vegas to attact you to gamble... Go with it and enjoy the ride!
