East Ogden Ave, Entertainment District

I was recently on a trip to visit a few friends of mine when I had a chance to drive around and try to find some great shops. I turned off of N. Maryland Parkway because the GPS in the car that I rented obviously didn't update itself or was just plain a piece of crap. I thought that maybe I would have run into to some Boheimian area but this was just old buildings, cleared lots, and houses. I thought that Vegas had the glitz and glamour everywhere but then I pulled myself back down to earth and realized that this is just a city as all others are. I never thought I'd say this but if you want to see the lights, Stay by the strip. The rest of vegas is pretty mundane to say the least. It's a great place to try to build that dream home but wow it's hot here during the summer and there are quiet a few seedy areas.
