I thought I would post a blog on my home town which is Las Vegas, Nevada. I am actually a true native, being born and raised here. In fact the house I was born in is still around, and just down the hill from I now live. Like most big cities we have both good, and bad things going on around the area. Since we are a major tourist destination we get all types of folks visiting from many different countries. I am not part of the tourist industry, but I do run into some very interesting visitors on the golf course. I once bought a set of "Liguid Metal" golf clubs from a Korean gentleman. He flew into Vegas, purchased the clubs, used them twice, and ask me if I wanted them for $50, since he did not want to take back home to Korea. Still have them, out in the garage some where I think. They are probably worth alot less than $50 now.
I have provided a link to the history of the LV area. Also a link listing the many golf courses in, and around the LV area. Over the years I have golfed at all those listed, (except for few private ones) some even before they opened for business.
