New member from Las Vegas
« on: June 12, 2024, 08:07:50 PM »
Brian from Las Vegas. I’ve been a member since 2020. I don’t normally post much, just lots of reading. I’ve had my K1 since 1986.
I have a few things I’d like to post in the classifieds. I was successful at posting a ad but I’m unable to reply due to no posts. So this is my first post.

Hi, Brian! I think you need to have several posts before the 'photo fairy' will listen to your requests. ;)
Where in LV are you? My brother just [re]moved back there, is down near the dam now. He used to be on the west side.

Where in LV are you? My brother just [re]moved back there, is down near the dam now. He used to be on the west side.
Hi HondaMan
We’re on the south end of town off of Warm Springs. Your brother must be in Boulder City?

That’s a very busy area of town nowadays with shopping center, UMC and associated medical buildings. There are some very nice neighborhoods around there. We’ve been here 20 years.

That sounds right: I think he mentioned that name. He's looking for a house to buy, renting there until he can find what he wants, I guess(?).
He used to be the Chief Safety Engineer for Nevada Power, then retired to go [back] to MO where we spent most of our summers growing up, racing our bikes around fantastic winding roads with no traffic. He said it's not like that anymore, and the people in that town are nothing like they were, so they went back to LV instead after some 6 years.

Probably true everywhere?
