Happy 4th of July weekend everyone!

For everyone that love back to back overcrowded places and lots of fun-loving adventures there is only one place that comes to mind. Las Vegas, Nevada. 24-hour non-stop entertainment. Anyone that has ever been to Vegas, knows what I'm telling. Personally I do not like loud people and a bunch of fireworks, however, there are quite a few folks that do.

I love the all-you-can-eat buffets with chefs around the world serving their best entrees. I love the themed hotel casinos theaters, shopping and 24 hour comedy, concert singing, zoological and botanical gardens, soon to be open water park that was running full time a few years  back and the unbeatable street entertainment. It is a city that is still hard on the homeless because of the tourism, however, it is a place for them also and they do sometimes offer their trade to a willing audience.

All that being said I find the quietness and peacefulness of Mount Charleston quite satisfactory for me as well as Lake Tahoe. I just have to watch out for those Dick Cheyney's out there with firearms. Don't want to be a hunting accident. Here is an itemized list of things to make note of: (1.) Have adult supervision when detonating fireworks, (2.) release fireworks in designated areas and away from any known veteran abode, (3.) attend free fireworks day celebration events where professionals will be in charge of fireworks displays and (4.) Stay indoors and watch from your patio-balcony with your astronomers telescope. Number 4 is for those of us that do not like loud noises. It is that time once again where I say as they always say in Hollywood after a successful film shoot; "And cut!" "That's a wrap!"
