Lightbright, did you get out to redrock? VERY cool just outside town on the north end. The Dam is pretty cool too and also not far. For those of you that think you'd hate it, I used to think that too until I got sent there for a month for work, and discovered I liked it enough to go back (several times). I don't gamble either - my biggest win in all my trips was walking out of the Golden Nugget 4 hours after walking in, with the same $20 in my pocket but there is just so much non gaming/non broadway show stuff to do it really is worth the trip.
