First Chance to Lose It All
Mile 2,284, Mesquite, NV
You don’t need a road sign or map to tell you you’ve reached Nevada; almost every major state border crossing bulks up on casino presence to satisfy the truly addicted among us who just can’t wait to get to Vegas. One great thing for us in coming into Nevada from Utah: We gain an hour by switching time zones. We left St. George at 8:30; it’s now 8:05.
