If you go to Bryce, buy the annual pass for Nat. Parks. You have to drive through Zion to get to Bryce anyway and that's $20 or $25 on each end plus the $20 or $25 to get into Bryce once. For $80 you're good for any Nat. Park for a year. Just used our pass again last week in Shenandoah Nat. Park. Well worth the bucks.

Heidi Fleiss in Pahrump....

That too .... if you need a quick wash of clothes, the 'Dirty Laundry' is called ... the 'bordello for woman' is not open yet (that I know off)

Plenty of other 'establishments' to visit in Nye County ...

Sweet, had a change of plans this weekend, now my wife has time to come along, so skip the Heidi stuff. Have to find a yummy dinner and maybe a show.

go nuclear
 

Besides the usual vegas miss- behavior I have to recomend the test site museum.

http://www.atomictestingmuseum.org/

Great stuff for engineering nerds and plenty of declassified docs to keep politicos busy for a LONG time. Neat displays too.

Dinner: have some drinks at Fontana Bar then a nice dinner at Olives (ask for patio seating as you can see the fountains). Both at the Bellagio. Reservations a MUST.

OR

Dinner: have some drinks at Parasol Down Bar then a nice dinner at Bartolotta. Both at the Wynn. Reservations a MUST.

Show: go see 'O' (Bellagio) or Ka (MGM)

I've done the roller coaster and the one that shoots you straight up. I draw the line with these two...

John,

I can definitely recommend Blue Man Group. Best show I saw when I was there.

I think the "Hard Hat" tours at Hoover stopped because of 9/11. I was able to take that tour years ago and it was great. It's still pretty impressive, and like someone else said, if you get up and get out there early, the traffic is not too bad. Hoover Dam Tours

I even enjoyed just walking around the casino's and shops. Venetian, Caesars, and I'm sure there are many others now. As someone else mentioned, there is lots of free stuff in addition to the big $$ shows. Don't be afraid to play it by ear.

BMG is good times. Saw them here in Raleigh actually.

I also strongly recommend groveling for an audience with TABS.
