About Me

My photo
Chuck60
Las Cruces, NM, United States
Ahh, Las Vegas...the ultimate surreal escape destination that lures previous visitors back time and time again and entices first - timers to dream outside the realm of reality for a fantasy vacation. Las Vegas allows us to blend in with the varied masses, act a fool, and usually get away with it. The great majority of us are not high - rollers and fortunately there are some means to obtain some significant cost savings when planning and executing Sin City escapes. That is a core part of our intent here along with Vegas travel news, general news, and event happenings in this surreal and exciting neon jungle. It's Vegas...the real deal site!
