    Boulder City Nevada is an amazing historic town located 30 miles East of Las Vegas and played an important role with the construction of the Hoover Dam and creation of Lake Mead. If you plan to visit the Hoover Dam, then watch this video as I take you to 12 stops you should also visit. I've put links to most of the places you can visit.

    Wow this video should be part of the Boulder city chamber of commerce's official tourist guide. Wow Hemenway park with the sheep, i never seen that before. The Rail Explorers looks pretty fun, i remember when you guys vlogged that ride. I haven't been to any of these sights so this was a learning experience for me.

    Families and groups enjoy cookouts and picnics all the time. Children are at the at the playground every day. Couples and singles walk the well laid out trail and simply sit and enjoy the beautiful views. If you’re lucky, you see the longhorn sheep.
    You can hiking and biking trails, never ending photo opps, amazing Veterans Memorial Park, 2 breweries, quaint restaurants, coffee places, and more. The best part about BC is no traffic and crowds, except on the weekends. Everything a small town has to offer with a major metropolitan region 15 to 40 minutes away.
