STC Conference in Las Vegas

Hi Everyone,

I returned from my first trip to Las Vegas this week. It's interesting to compare expectations with observations on a trip like that. Everyone has heard about the strip, and the phrase sin city is well known. I found the city more tame and more pedestrian than I might have thought. It's true that I didn't go to any exciting shows, but altogether it just seemed like an interesting vacation spot. I saw lots of people - a cross-section of the country - walking up and down the strip, enjoying the sights.

The architecture is interesting. A lot of thought and money has gone into the buildings there. Not all of the architecture is great, but it's not nearly as garish as I thought it would be. Some of the architecture is actually pleasing. Anyone wanting to design a large hotel from scratch should visit Las Vegas first!

That's enough for now,

Steve
