In Defense of Las Vegas and Other Maligned Destinations

"I saw Hoover Dam, a massive feat of engineering spanning over 1,200 feet and standing 700 feet tall, and its by-product Lake Mead, which is great for swimming, kayaking and other water activities; you can also take a guided tour of the dam itself for $30 USD." - Matthew Kepnes
