I'd like to go to Vegas sometime. I don't gamble but would like to see the place that gave birth to the snowclone "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas". I think there's a good chance it'll disappear/collapse soon due to climate change, and I want to see the "before" of a monument to man's hubris that spits in the face of water usage.

I've read some older novels about Monterrey, California, and would like to visit there. That area has an endemic pine and some other neat things, some of which are also probably sensitive to climate change.

I've been to Las Vegas for work (and will again in a couple weeks if there isn't a shutdown) and there are some neat things out of town, like a nearly 12k foot tall mountain. I've never done anything on town except for training, tho.
