Reno is Artown


You wouldn't think of art and community when you think of Reno, NV but I've go news for you it does exist and there is plenty of it!

During the month of July there are events celebrating the arts all over the city of Reno! It's a great event and wonderful way to enjoy a warm summer evening!

I have been to a concert in the park and a movie in the park that were both a lot of fun!

There are many exhibits and performances that you can enjoy! So check out the Artown web site and see what's going on before it ends!

Check Out Napa Sonoma Grocery Co.

I have been recently introduced to the Napa Sonoma Grocery Company in Reno, NV and it is wonderful! A couple of months back my friend Rhonda met me for lunch there and I have been back several times since!

It's very inviting, the food is great, and staff is very friendly and helpful!
Check out the reviews on yelp.com!

Here's a map! Check it out sometime you won't regret it!

Reno is More Than You Think...


I commute to Reno, NV Monday - Friday. I cross over the Nevada border and look down on the city of Reno with all of it's casinos and tall downtown buildings. It is quite the site day or night!

What you don't know about Reno is that there is living and breathing community that is not a part of the casinos or the gambling! I know what you are thinking... "No Way!" but it's true.

There are fabulous restaurants, coffee shops, art, community activities, and a lot of personality!

I am finally getting around to sharing what I've learned in this past year and hope you can appreciate the community of Reno for more than just gambling!
