Train Ride

We have driven "the back way" out to Boulder City through Overton since the ride is gorgeous. It's fun to go and ride the train in Boulder City and stop and look through the "museum" of trains. It does cost to ride the train, but I think you can look at the museum free of charge. It's open on Saturdays and it's a short ride, but fun way to let your kids feel what old time travel was like. Boulder City has a couple of other interesting museums on the Hoover Dam and such. We take our time on the back way stopping at Roger's Springs along the way to look at the little minnows. We also stop in Overton for ice cream on the way back to Mesquite.
