We will be in Las Vegas in February. We rented a Cessna 172 last year
and did the Hoover Dam, Lad mead, Grand Cayon thing. Where do we go
this year? Are there any good $100 (or more) hamburger destinations
nearby or other sights we should see?

Check out Echo Bay (0L9). Short flight from Las Vegas, decent restaurant,
and good views of the lake.

Echo bay. We went up there last March, and the resort sent a complimentary shuttle bus out to the
airport to pick us up. We had the "$100 breakfast", walked down the long ramp to the marina to look
around, and then returned to the Phoenix area via the Grand Canyon. It was a nice outing.

Thanx.. I'll check it out... how did you call them?? are they on the airport
frequency?
last time I was at Echo bay there was nothing but a runway.. and the cell
phone did not work

For the uninitiated.. Echo Bay, (and Temple Bar) runway slopes and have
multiple landing illusions..
like landing up hill into a setting sun with strobing effect from the
propeller
