68: A Las Vegas Staycation with Scott and Melissa

June 20, 2009

I think it’s safe to say that for those of us who live in Las Vegas, there is no better place to enjoy a “Staycation” (a vacation in your own town) than right here. . .in the town that REALLY never sleeps.  For this edition of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we take you on an overnight trip to the Strip, from a local’s perspective.  Show notes:

64: Dining at Wynn Encore, New Year’s Eve with 20-Somethings and Live Video

January 11, 2009

Because we enjoy having guests at the Whitney Villa, one of the great things about Living in Las Vegas is hosting/entertaining visitors when they come to town.  For today’s Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we first take our kids (who are visiting from California) to Wynn Encore for $ome fancy dining. Then, we review our New Year’s Eve party which brought in nine additional 20-somethings to the house and taught me a bit about bouncing back after puking, that some kids can drink faster than I ever could, and that if you play your cards right, you can get a secret XBOX 360 code for unlimited songs in Rock Star.  Show notes: (Now where did I put my NutriTorture snack bar. . .oh, and there is some swearing in this episode)
