Colin. Colin...
You visited the US. From New Zealand. And you somehow decided that *Tonopah* -- a city 211 miles north of *Las Vegas* -- was an unmissable place to visit?
I get that a lot of people (rightly) think Vegas is a hellhole. But Tonopah? The Clown Motel is the #1 listed tourist attraction in Tonopah, so I can only imagine you were there for the rock climbing
[I would also guess stargazing, but I still remember what the night sky looked like from Jeremy's house 30 miles north of Wellington and I can't imagine it's better here. Except our moon doesn't have a rabbit on it]

@kims@mas.to I was driving from (checks notes) Salt Lake City to Mammoth Lakes in 2024 and just needed somewhere to rest. I went to Las Vegas in 2017 as part of my coast to coast drive that year
