Fun in Reno!

Nancy and I enjoyed our recent outing to Reno. There is currently a fair amount of construction taking place on Highway 80 (both directions) - particularly around Kingvale and Truckee - but since we were traveling mid week the delays weren't that long. We stayed in a Studio Suite at the Eldorado Hotel. The rooms are nicely decorated and the size of the suite is about twice the size of a standard room. The mid week price for a Studio Suite is very reasonable - well worth the additional cost.

We had dinner at the Eldorado Prime Rib Grill. Our dinners were on par, in terms of quality and portion size, with the offerings at a Ruth Chris or Mortons. Their fillet mignon steak and their pork chops are especially good.

After dining ,we attended the Greg London Icons Show at Harrah's. I highly recommend this show as Greg London is truly an exceptional performer and he can do a believable impression of just about any singer in the world of entertainment (male or female). The Icons show is unique and it leaves you wanting more.

I've posted pictures to the right and at the bottom of the blog page. There are some additional photos on my Web Shot site. Just click on the below link to see a Web Shot slide show of our outing to Reno.
