Reno goes up and down, just like everything else in the country, and news outlets love sad stories like this - I wonder if they'll be writing stories celebrating its comeback once we're through the dr ... |

Made the trip over the hill for the first time in several months. Generally try to avoid Reno during the "events" season (Street Vibes, HAN etc.) and have been going to Vegas instead.

Wish I had better news, but I was in Reno on a non-event, non-holiday weekend. All the larger casinos seemed to have some decent patronage, but Circus and the Sands were dead dead dead. Cal Neva was ... |
