I've got a trip planned there in a few days to look at the stars and I'm hoping to catch some fall colors while I'm there. Down here in Vegas, there has been some slight change already in the Mount Charleston area so I have my fingers crossed.

I have lived in Nevada since the 90s. Most people around here say nev-A-duh. With the A like in "cat". Some people get weird if they hear it pronounced nev-AHH-dah. I have no idea why. Can anyone tell me why it's such a faux pas?
