The city that people think of when they hear the name Las Vegas - which is mostly the strip - is actually pretty different from what it is for its residents.
That Las Vegas is the last place we would have expected to land, and given the choice, we wouldn't have picked it.
But when we moved from our tiny condo downtown to our house at The Lakes, we fell in love w/ Vegas. Off the strip, it's actually a very lovely place, one which hopefully we'll never have to leave.
