See America

The Great Buffalo Roundup

Probably the most iconic American mammal is the bison, or buffalo as it’s colloquially called. They’re nearly synonymous with Yellowstone National Park, but there’s another, better place to see them. One where traffic jams rarely occur every time one meanders by. It’s also a bit easier for most Americans to get to and every bit as beautiful: the Black Hills of South Dakota. This week, the Great Buffalo Roundup at South Dakota’s Custer State Park.

The Neon Boneyard

Las Vegas, Nevada. The quintessential Road Trip destination. For nearly 100 years it’s been the American epicenter for gambling, live spectacles, shotgun weddings, magicians, and all sorts of assorted vice. Its proximity to Southern California ensures the desert oasis is fed with a continuous supply of visitors, and its reputation for hospitality delivers a steadfast flow of people from around the world. 

If there’s one word that describes the look of Vegas, it’ must be “neon.” One of its many nicknames is even “the Neon Capital of the World,” So it’s no surprise that, if there were a museum dedicated to Neon signs anywhere, it would be in Vegas. 

This week, the Neon Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada.
