I LOVED LV and I too grew up there,my hubs and his parents AND grandparents were all born and raised there but it doesn't matter to us... the quality of life is sooooo much better here, and it really isn't something you recognize until you leave and see it and how much it lacks, how better life can be. Simple little things like CLEAN air and land, non cinderblocked walled off neighbors, no billboards you have to explain of HIDE from your children, no graffiti, it all gives you such a more calm and family friendly feeling. Vegas holds great memories for us and we are SAD that we know we can never go HOME again, but grateful we got to experience a time there when it wasn't so rundown. Its is always WONDERFUL to be with family though, so keep having a good time. And seriously if you want to ever meet up, Im not that far from ya. :)chanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12518479851706665639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386060987520136468.post-88334094591425118502010-05-30T15:18:30.485-06:002010-05-30T15:18:30.485-06:00(kasey's comment) Warm Springs is still here, ...(kasey's comment) Warm Springs is still here, they just closed it for a bit because they had to make repairs to the pool to bring it up to code. I can see where you are coming from, but I love it here. I love raising my kids here, I love where we live and the school they go to. I think we live in a good neighborhood with good neighbors and people I trust who look out for one another. But I have a different connection to this city that not many people claim. My grandmother was born and raised here, my father was born and raised here and this is where my family is. Our roots are deep and there is no other place I'd rather call home.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04016407108519903318noreply@blogger.com
