I have to agree with MC on this one.....however never having gone to Las
Vegas, it could be fun there as well.....but Reno does have a lot to offer
and I hear it is cheaper to host things in Reno than in Las Vegas. Plus
besides Reno you have the beauty of Lake Tahoe less than 40 minutes away
and when going up to Lake Tahoe you can come into Incline Village, my
hometown, and visit the Ponderosa Ranch which is where they filmed the TV
show Bonanza with Little Joe and Hoss and Adam and all the others- very
cool....then there is Carson City, the state capital of Nevada about 30
minutes outside Reno....and Virginia City is pretty cool too. And if you
want to gamble you can still do that in Reno lol. I would say we have the
Mustang Ranch as well....but that closed down sorry. IRS problems I think.
I vote Reno!!!! The bestest biggest little city in the world
