It was a collection of antique slot machines.
Like anywhere else we go, we made the best of it by exploring whatever Don Laughlin's eponymous town had to offer.Īnd in his Riverside Casino (the river being the Colorado), I found something I never knew I needed in my life until the moment I laid eyes on it. I only ended up there as part of a group of friends on a weekend getaway to take a tour of an old ranch in Searchlight (photo essay coming soon).Ĭhoices for overnight accommodations near there are limited-so, instead of staying at the state line at one of the casinos in Primm or in Needles along Route 66, we ended up in the poor man's Reno. I might never have found myself in Laughlin, Nevada on my own.
