A lot has been written about the new bridge at Hoover Dam and most are aware of the construction widening the lanes in Arizona to take care of that additional traffic, but I've seen nothing about what Nevada is doing to relieve the bottleneck at their end. Are we still going to drop into downtown Boulder City or is there another plan?

Can you tell us more about Jean, NV? I've read things here and there about its origins, and that MGM bought the properties to create some sort of residential community (if I remember correctly), but as we know, they've torn down one casino and haven't done anything with it yet. So, I guess my questions are: Why is it that two hotel/casinos were built in such a seemingly random location (and were able to survive so long), and is there any update about future plans for the land?

I remember going to the "Elvis Presley Museum" in Las Vegas a few years ago, and enjoyed it. I know it closed, but I still wonder what happened to all that Elvis stuff? Any chance it will re-open some day? I still have my old ticket stubs!

My husband and I like taking a romantic ride into the desert north of Las Vegas every time we visit. He likes the wide open spaces at sunset, but I’m partial to the Joshua trees at sunrise, they look like aliens. Can you tell us something about them?

I just read, in LVA's Today's News, about the "Las Vegas 51s" baseball team. I didn't know about this team, and might want to see a game during a future trip to LV -- especially if I'm losing heavy at video poker. I assume that I can find out some info about this team on Google, but I'd like to know if there are any more casino-sponsored "specials" like this one at the Golden Gate. Also, do you have any info about other amateur/semi-pro/minor league/school sports teams’ games that LV visitors might be interested in attending?

In a recent Question of the Day you mentioned several movies that had movie scenes shot at the Plaza Hotel. One mentioned was the movie Casino (one of my all-time favorites!), with Robert DeNiro and Sharon Stone. I know that the opening scene of the movie takes place in the parking lot of Main Street Station. Are there any other casinos in town that were part of this movie?
