In the Los Angeles Times today there was mention of Bonnie Springs Ranch which is near Red Rock Canyon. In all of my trips to Las Vegas and being an LVA member, I have never heard of it. It sounds a bit like Oatman [a former mining town and current tourist attraction in Arizona] but is only 22 miles from the Strip. Is it worth checking out?

What is the status of Dotty’s and their opening of casinos?

I recall reading that Harrah’s was going to remodel their casino and later heard that they were going to start remodeling their rooms. I was thinking of staying there this October. What, if any, progress has been made regarding all of the remodeling?

I am looking out from my hotel room at the Wynn golf course. Over the years I have probably had this view five or six times. I never see anybody playing the course, although I am sure it happens.

When recently downtown at the Container Park, I noticed what looked like new construction on a dome-shaped structure called The Venue. Looking for any info you might have on this.
