Free Stuff Las Vegas Part III
Let me take you to Area 15. Yes, your are reading it right, it is Area 15 and NOT Area 51. For this one you need a car. I is not very far, but impossible without a car since it is on the west side of the I 15, just about behind the Palace Station. Parking at that location is a bit cramped, but I always managed to find a spot. It is free. There are several buildings, but I think only one has a fee to get in. The main entertainment buildings is free to enter and browse. It has a great bar and dining area. If you still have that car and like to see some Nevada wild mustangs and donkeys take the Red Rock Canyon loop. The burros are all over, they are not native but are left over from Nevada mining days. but the mustangs are more to the north within the canyon. The Red Rock Canyon loop takes you back to the strip automatically. Don’t forget to stop in the little town of Blue Diamond, it is just a few feet off the main road. Real interesting. Just like a picture out of the old west. Closer to home are the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. It has been a tremendous success story from the day it opened. Park at the Caesars parking garage, exit at the ground floor and it is just a few step to the shops. Valet is also available. There are over 150 upscale shops. Several of them only available in Vegas or NYC> But the main thing here is the free entertainment. Fountains with talking and moving Romans, a huge aquarium and more. Should you hanker for some dancing head on over to Mickey Gilleys at the Treasure Island. Free line dance lessons. They let you sit around, no need to buy anything. Personally I would at least buy a drink. There also is a large BBQ every night. A big attraction here are the cocktail waitresses. Their uniforms are so skimpy their butts are hanging out. I don’t mind, but I stare a lot. That’s all for this post, it is getting too long. More in my next post.
