Enjoyed the pics Pam and I agree about the value of documenting these places. Sure wish my parents or I had taken some photos when I was a kid & we visited Stateline at Tahoe in '64 or Las Vegas in '66. Rats! Or when I wandered through Harolds Club that time or ... well, you get the, uh, picture.

Another big advantage is the experience of these places. The Pippi Longstockings dealer at the Model T or the miner's wives trading tips in Winnemucca about getting nitrates out of your hair so's you don't get busted by the bomb sniffers at the airport. Listening to the cowboys in Elko and hearing the old gal in Carlin announcing the Grayhound departure to the slot players at the Flyin' J... "Get on the bus, ya don't want to get stuck HERE!" No 4-Way Casino matches there at Wells, they hand out Donna's Ranch books instead.
