What should I do?

[meadmaker]

I'm currently in Las Vegas because of RailsConf, a software development convention. The convention ended this afternoon, but I'm staying on until tomorrow evening.

This evening, I went out and took some photos of Nevada's Valley of Fire. It was pretty cool. But, tomorrow I have until about 5:00 to have fun.

Some ideas that I've had:

• Go back out to the Valley of Fire tomorrow at dawn, since I didn't get all that much time out there this evening.


• Head down to Hoover Dam


• Visit Lake Mead


• Kick back and relax at the pool


• Do some shopping


• Visit the spa in the hotel

What do you think? What other options would you suggest?

This should be a poll, but I haven't paid for my account in a while, so if ya'll want to have a say, you'll have to leave comments.

PS: The raw photos from today will be here once my computer gets around to finishing resizing them and starts uploading them instead.

Lake Mead is tragically mis-named.

Much love,

And universal remote controls don't let you control the universe remotely!

The world is a sad, cold, unfair place.

How could you control the universe remotely?!

From another universe?

More's the pity!

If you go to Hoover Dam do the hard-hat tour (if they're still offering it - you might want to call and check). That tour is cool. If they're not offering it, I would go back to Vally of Fire since that's way more interesting that Hoover Dam.

The Star Trex exhibit is really cool too! I think it is at the Hilton but I might be wrong. In any event, have a good time!

The ST exhibit is gone! It was so totally incredible, and I didn't get to see everything I'd wanted. I'd planned to go back again, but they got rid of it last autumn :(

Ok, whoops, I might be mistaken. I just remembered I'd heard rumors that it was reopening. Here's what I found.

Apparently it's reopening TODAY but won't be fully ready until 2010.
