How did you find your footing again the last time Las Vegas life asked you to start over?
Visitors see the lights, but you know the schools, the neighborhoods and the long shifts behind them, and telling that real Las Vegas is something only a local can do. ToldForward asks one easy question a day so the job never feels big, and it keeps every answer private. One day the people you pick will know the city from your side of the lights.
Las Vegas, Nevada
Las Vegas began as a railroad town in 1905, when lots were sold at a two-day auction, and its water made it a natural stop for trains crossing the desert. From those beginnings grew a city that keeps reinventing itself. Your life may have had a few reinventions too. When did you start over, and what did you learn? Let the people close to you know about the turning points, and how you found your footing each time.
In 1946, part of Fremont Street was named Glitter Gulch, and since 1995 a canopy above it has put on a light and sound show. Maybe you remember the old signs, a night out with friends or a shift that ran past midnight. Plenty of people here work while others play. What was your job like, and who made the long hours better? Your stories from both sides of the lights are worth keeping.
About seventeen miles west of the Strip, Red Rock Canyon became Nevada's first National Conservation Area. It is a place to hike, climb or simply sit and watch the light move across the rocks. Where do you go in Las Vegas when you want some peace? What do you think about when you get there? Your quiet thoughts matter as much as the big moments, and they show the people after you who you really are.
