Special Notice From RoyVegas

My posting recently has been reduced, and erratic. I am presently building a regular dot com website which will take RoyVegas to the next level.

The name will be better than RoyVegasDotBlogSpotDotCom, the images will be larger, and posting will be (I hope) several times a day.

Until then, I will continue to run this blog as my main internet presence.

I will certainly post notice here, when I open the new site, and as well will call the fivehundy line.

Las Vegas, Nevada, The Frontier On 1 January 2008

In these shots of the present state of The Frontier, a security guard is sitting on a chair. By my estimation, the location of the guard is within a few feet of where one of the old timey cowboy slot machines were located.
