neon!

next to the desert flowers, the neon museum was the best thing about this go-around in vegas --- an hour tour by this twenty-something woman was great --- and that's from someone that generally hates such tours

massive kudos to the people that started salvaging this stuff from the 1990s-on demolition of the old las vegas strip --- north of fremont street, several nice vintage pieces have been installed along n. las vegas blvd, which is where the neon museum is located, in the reinforced-concrete lobby of the la concha (1961) relocated in 2005 --- unfortunately by the time we got there for our 8:30 reservations (required), we had spent too long on fremont street and so i neglected taking images of the structure

if i am not mistaken, this was the oldest of the signs, dating to the early 1930s and from boulder city, i think
