[QUOTE="Sky King, post: 729620, member: 7171"] It will work out just fine. As a born and raised WI native and a resident of Las Vegas for the past 26 years I can speak from personal experience. Other than to go to work, catch an occasional show, or dine at a world-class restaurant, residents rarely spend any time on the Strip or visit downtown unless we give visitors the obligatory tours. Otherwise, there's no need to go to those places. They're not even mildly tempting except for maybe very new residents and that gets old in a big hurry, anyway. The cliche distractions are reserved exclusively for the tourist-types and you can have that all to yourselves. Living here and visiting here are two entirely different experiences that are worlds apart for most residents. There is so much to do here that's of an outdoorsy nature that there is little time nor little desire to spend any time whatsoever at the casinos. We have an excellent lifestyle and the climate is pleasingly pleasant nearly all year-round. Even the Summers are tolerable, especially if one has their own pool in the backyard or there is a community pool nearby, or both. Lake Mead has more shoreline than California and the fishing and boating are spectacular. One can snow ski at Lee Canyon on Mt. Charleston (a [I]real [/I]mountain), less-than an hour from the Strip or Downtown. Or, water ski on Lake Mead which is also less-than an hour from the Strip or Downtown. On the same day. Golf is an everyday possibility. Celebrity residents abound and encounters are commonplace. MEH level. And star football player can enjoy a healthy measure of anonymity if they prefer the more private lifestyle. I know from personal experience that the total Las Vegas environment is actually going to be very desirable for players and their families on several important fronts. I could go on and on. 43 million visitors come to Las Vegas every year and practically none of them have a clue about the terrific lifestyle that the vast majority of us residents are able to enjoy thanks to them. Frankly, we like it that way or more of you would be moving out here in droves and we've gotten to be too large as it is. [/QUOTE]
