    Thinking of going to Ellis Island for cheap prime rib.

    I may be driving out to red rock to check it out, may stop off at that resort.

    We went to Ellis Island this last trip. Get the American Casino Guide, there are coupon in there.

    EI is right down the street from where Tupac got shot.

    Also the Stage Door is right down the street. Cheap shots of hard licks. We kinda stumbled out of there with a strong buzz.

    I was like 2 blocks from 2Pac when he got shot. Went to that fight actually. Was staying at the MGM and around midnight like 2 dozen cops ran through the hotel.

    I'm doing a weird Vegas trip this time around:

    Golden Tiki or Frankies
    Rio Hotel Voodoo Lounge
    Palms Hotel (want to see the Damien Hirst Shark Display)
    There's a highly rated mexican restaurant next to a strip club called El Dorado Cantina

    I'll give you $225k cash in 2 years when the market falls of a cliff. Oh, I'm going to roll into the sales centers like a total dickhead talking about how everything is 30% overpriced. lol

    I was planning to wait 2 years until the Raiders get here but I'm gonna call my realtor and see if it isn't too late to bail now.

    There's lots to see but I know of four interesting things.
    1. They've got a people train that will get you up and down a lot of the strip.
    2. Vegas World along the strip but toward the downtown as an elevator to the top with a couple of fabulous amusement rides.
    3. The Mirage has a great lobby with a tremendous aquarium. Really an eye opener.
    4. Hoover (Boulder) Dam.

    @bodyman5000 and 1 is there anything good around Red Rocks/Summerlin as far as big planned neighborhoods with a home preview center, model homes, etc? Probably gonna do that on Saturday and hit up Red Rocks and the 7 Mountains Art thing for a bit.

    Is Lake Las Vegas any good?

    I would imagine they have something in Summerlin. My buddy used to live there.

    My advice is to use a real estate agent coupled with some independent research.

    Probably more NW of Summerlin. Summerlin is getting pretty old actually. They're building a new minor league baseball stadium somewhere around there. Not sure where.



    I haven't been to Lake Las Vegas since the recession. I liked it then and now Cadence is building close to it.

    If you're going to 7 Magic Mountains (waste of time) drive through Inspirada it is just southeast of The M casino
