So with all the house/moving stuff going on this summer we decided it was best to hang around town instead of taking a vacation. (lame) Being an adult is not very much fun most of the time. Anyway I dragged Greg and the kids up to Virginia City the Saturday before Doug started school and I have to say they had a pretty great time. I highly recommend the trolley tour but other than that I guess you just have to pick and choose what you like. It's been a few years since I've been up there and I was surprised at how much they had to see and do. Maybe things have changed or maybe my parents were just really cheap because all I remember doing as kid was taking the "walking tour" and eating ice cream. (burn)
