Ten Miles to the Strip - and 7 Places to Stop on the Way

[@johnnyespo1066]

Dale and Paula, I think you two are "AMAZING". Yes, I can say it, but I only have to say it once.

[@paulamckenzie]

We love this! 👏👏

[@mmirl9859]

They are the cutest couple

[@anthonylagano]

Hey Dale and Paula ! Always love going on a road trip with you two crazy kids. Very enjoyable video . I’d expect nothing less from Las Vegas’s goodwill ambassadors 😎😎😎

[@paulamckenzie]

What a lovely description - thanks! 😊

[@julieonthesummit]

You two are the best. Why a local television hasnt snapped you up for little travel segments is beyond me. Your content is on point!

[@paulamckenzie]

Oh my goodness, what a lovely compliment - thank you! 🥰

[@LuisSanchez-iw7bi]

Those are some of the places I love in Vegas, Thank you very much Dale and Paula, you're the best, you make such an effort to put out top quality content!

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank you so much, lovely compliment 😊

[@jeffreycharles5035]

I would be in that antique store all day!

[@grantleon6736]

That place is huge and alot of fun checking everything out.

[@paulamckenzie]

Right??? And we didn’t even show you a third of the video we took that day!

[@bobm7499]

The Silverton! I was staying at South Point and not having a lot of luck there (that changed later!) so I decided to drive the short 3 miles over to the Silverton. What a place! Beautiful and the aquarium is special. The mermaid was performing.when I walked in and she was a kick. What I liked best was the casino was not as smokey as many others. Probably a better ventilation system and not a small thing for me post-Covid. Best part, Dale. Went into the high stakes room and sure enough: a wall of $1 keno machines. Put in less than $100 and walked out an hour later a very, very happy person. Even made Uncle Sam smile. Will be revisiting in October. Speaking of South Point: that line at the cafe is there for a reason. Wonderful, inexpensive food. Ate all of my meals there including some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. Their breakfasts are superb too. I think you'd be impressed, Paula. Again, another wonderful video. Thanks so much.

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank you Bob - we always appreciate your insights and experiences. Dale says congrats on your big win!! 🎰

[@forthejoyofvegas9375]

Amazing video, You say Amazing as offen as you wish, We had a place like sickies in Chicago it was called John's Garage, Boy do I Miss it. I will have to check that place out. THANKS for all your hard work on your videos ❤ much Love to you both ❤️ Joy ❤

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank YOU Joy, for always being out there watching 🥰

[@deliverancetwo]

Dale and Paula, you have done it again. What are you fantastic video this was thank you. You all are the best. And as always I love the music

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank you so much - we are thrilled at the positive reactions to this video topic 😊

[@taxpayer6079]

Great video guys! Keep em coming

[@erinYYC]

another amazing, Sunday adventure! Thank you for taking us along and showing us a ton of awesome spots!!!!!!!! This was such a great video, with so many great ideas for our next trip! We are big fans, of that south end of the strip!

[@kathiestonaker3717]

Wow!!!! Better and better every week. The Silverton is my favorite. I could sit by the aquarium for hours. And the check in desk employees are the nicest. And bass pro shops is a big plus. You don’t have to be an outdoorsman to enjoy that place. Thank you for the tour of the antique mall. I’ve never been but have driven by a 100 x. Will definitely go there and to Sickies next time I visit my grandkids. ❤

[@MaryBertling-x1k]

agree! love the Silverton and the steak restaurant there is A++

[@vegaslady3732]

I've been visiting LV for almost 40 years - with very little of that time spent off of the "main" part of the Strip. But I think South Point has got to be added to my agenda! Hopefully during one of the horse events! Thanks for this interesting & inspiring vlog!

[@paulamckenzie]

South Point has a lot going for it - definitely make time to explore it a bit!

[@darleneyost8146]

When we lived in Vegas, we loved the M - Hotel..

[@jerrysanders9101]

I’m a southern Californian who hasn’t visited in 5 years due to greedy resort fees, parking fees, $8 waters, overpriced food everywhere, overpriced rooms, on and on. Hopefully things will revert.🎉❤ Edit- that said.. i really miss las Vegas and have valuable memories of many many years of visits- and love D&P videos.. the best😊

[@paulamckenzie]

Believe me when I say, we understand why you don’t vacation here any more. Thank you for continuing to watch us though!

[@whiv]

Exploring the lesser-known side of Vegas before hitting the Strip 💯

[@genejohnson3391]

Excellent video! We stopped at Sickies in Rapid City SD on our honeymoon. What a place!

[@busterbud]

Thanks for a great tour of some places that can be overlooked.

[@michelledickson3960]

Another fantastic video. I have never heard of the Silverton. It is my hope, and I'm sure many other would agree with me, that YES, you should do a staycation at the Silverton ... Riiiiight now! Thanks for always sharing your adventures with us.

[@paulamckenzie]

Ok! We did a staycation there several years ago - it was still during the pandemic, and well before this recent renovation. That’s why it’s due for an update. 😊

[@MariaSF60]

Terrific video Dale & Paula!!! So great to have all these parts surrounding the strip mentioned to those of us that are not aware. We r actually SO excited - are coming to LV area this week & may end up as residents!!! Hopefully we can meet you soon - you have been such a happy part of our lives since we discovered you guys around 2020!!! Love you folks!!!❤❤❤

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank you so much for sticking with us for such a long time, and hope you have a fabulous visit!

[@judithjohnson7962]

Wow! So much to see and do only 10 miles from that famous sign. Thanks for sharing 😊

Wow, what a wonderful antique mall. Lots of cool stuff 👍😺. Wishing you a happy lucky week and your videos are always informative. 🤠🎉🎉. The Southpoint is always fun.

[@rich56ca]

Very interesting. We used to go to the M when they had their great buffet, but alas, it’s gone. Antique Mall looks fascinating and wanted to check out Silverton one of these times. Great video!

[@monicasanders810]

What a great video. When I heard what this video was gonna be about I wasn’t expecting such an in-depth video. I guess I forgot whose channel I was watching. 😉

[@paulamckenzie]

OK Monica, this made both of us laugh! 😂

[@igniteexport1463]

Where is our old pal Durango? I sure do miss him. I just enjoyed again his award winning reading of ‘twas the night before Christmas. Yes I know it’s August. Haha

[@marydriskell2106]

That’s a great adventure!! So much in a few miles, can’t beat it. Love it. ❤

[@ettaplace6716]

Love the Silverton and fabulous outdoor world 🎉

[@FrontiersmanAdventures]

I am very happy to say that I have stayed at the M - it was very very nice, and I had a great dinner there. I have also been to South Point - Tina and I were able to go there the first time, because of a fabulous couple - Paula and Dale who gave us a tour of the facility, then took us to eat at a secret hidden place that we cannot reveal. It was a wonderful evening with you guys, and blessed you gave up some of your time for us. We have never been to the Antique Mall - it does look pretty cool. We have been to Silverton, and we had to check it out because of one of your previous videos - it is a really cool place. I ate at the diner in Silverton and did a video. It was fabulous. Bass Pro Shops is very cool. Sickies looks awesome, and I think we will be going there on our next visit to Las Vegas. Thanks for the cool video!

[@paulamckenzie]

LOL we went to that secret hidden place for supper tonight! I was sure you’d notice the t-shirt I was wearing on my Saturday morning travel marathon…From Alamance. 🥰

That was a great little adventure off the strip and looked like you definitely got your 10,000 steps in that day. The antique mall looks, as Dale has our permission to say, “Amazing!”

[@sallypeterson5642]

That was a fun vlog. I love tater tots too, Paula.

[@keepugessn]

Dale and Paula, I loved this video as well! You are really Showing Las Vegas and doing it justice! I love the history lessons and we are going to check out the Silverton Tomorrow😊❤❤❤❤

[@paulamckenzie]

Thank you, that’s a lovely compliment 😊

[@kittychatalot]

I think that both of you would really enjoy Stampede in Calgary, every July. It is very cool!

[@paulamckenzie]

Ohh sigh…bucket list item for sure..

[@greenQT]

Hi Dale and Paula, fun idea for a vid and very informative. That end of town never gets enough attention. Karla in Cali.

[@angelikamoritz490]

[@clarissaflores3102]

For many years we have loved to stay at the M Resort. We greatly miss Studio B buffet and it still hurts that football has invaded. We just avoid Vegas during football (and now car racing) season. One of our recently added favorite restaurants in the area is not on the strip but it is delicious. It's. Called M ama Bird's southern kitchen. I recommend a chicken thigh and the hummingbird cake in a jar, but everything there that we have tried is wonderful. When we are in las vegas we have learned to target our favorite hangouts on the strip. We are very familiar with that stretch of road.You traveled in this video. Another favorite suggestion is not locally owned but also very good... Texas de brazil in the Town Square (North side) We cannot wait for the M resort to have it's new addition and we look forward to your featuring it.

[@paulamckenzie]

We too have dined at Mama Bird Southern Kitchen - sooo good, we need to feature it in a vlog!

[@cody-hall-photo]

This is me and my families "coming into Vegas" routine! We love to stop at all these places. We often stay at the Cancun resort. Cracker Barrel is a favorite place for us to go because there is not one in our area. Great suggestions and well done video as always!

[@melissajensen3166]

Great video. If I ever get to Vegas. That darn job of mine keeps getting in the way of having fun! I will definitely hang at those places. To heck with the strip. Been there, done that. I would stay at The M. As a rabid Raiders fan! I do like the SouthPoint and cowboys! Grew up in Oakland but rode horses! lol.

[@paulamckenzie]

Melissa, your plan has our full endorsement - you’d have a great time at either or both! 🏈🐴

[@rich-mp6dm]

That was a very nice shirt Dale was wearing at the intro.

[@carmencollazo2582]

Thank you for a great informative video of that side of the strip. Keep them coming! Stay well, God bless!

[@cattenshi4213]

Love these little jaunts off strip. Silverton seems to be right up my alley, time away from the bustle of the strip in a cozier environ w/beautiful areas. I'm always looking for a niche to have a coffee or small bite & read or listen to pods or do cross-stitch. 📚😊

[@joyjoyjoyfolie]

AHmazing!!!! Really and truly loved this video!!

[@deniseu2119]

I need to check out the antique mall. I collect antique glassware, and that might be a likely spot. My suggestion is in Town Square - Double Helix Wine & Whiskey Lounge. It's one of our fave places in Vegas. Great food, wonderful service.

[@paulamckenzie]

We still have never gone there, even though you recommended it a long time ago. A little pricey…we will have to save our pennies and go on a special occasion. 🥃🥃

[@deniseu2119]

@@paulamckenzie Heh, since coming to Vegas is a special occasion for us, we can splurge a little. Though it has been quite a few years since we've been.

They filmed some of the Yellowstone episodes at the South Point! Especially in the horse arena area.

Your videos are great and you mentioned Idaho in this one. Southern Idaho is my home.

[@paulamckenzie]

Thanks for watching! In August 2005, we spent a wonderful 4 days in Idaho…stayed in Boise but drove up north along the Payette River to McCall one day, and east to Idaho Falls another day…attended a chuck wagon supper and a melodrama. We loved it all, and the people are SO nice!!

[@heyheyhelen931]

Southpoint, you asked when its ever not busy. Christmas morning 2019, long story why I was there, lol! Great vlog as always. My favorite casino is M Resort. As a Penn player, I always get comped rooms, food, and comped play. Their restaurants are pretty good.

[@merylcando]

Gotta check out these gems. Currently I am staying at Tuscany and loving it!

[@carolsessions9772]

I love the M! I have stayed there a few times and really like the bakery! The rooms are absolutely beautiful, but I was not very lucky at the casino

Every trip to Vegas includes at least one stop at Town Square and Ole Churros for churros and Spanish hot chocolate.

Nice video Dale and Paula 😊

[@SoCal90755]

I always love watching your videos! I’m definitely going to check out this part of Vegas because I like areas with less traffic, especially coming from California. Also, if you enjoy gambling, I’d love to see a video of you playing Ultimate Texas Hold’em Poker against the dealer. What do you think? BTW Kalamazoo, MI born here!

[@MaryBertling-x1k]

I love your channel. I am a librarian in the midwest who is really on the fence about relocating to Las Vegas. I worry about making friends, but whenever I go to Vegas, people seem so friendly. It also seems like the best place to retire. Do you both know any transplants from other states who have moved to Vegas and made it their home? I don't knnow what the content would look like, but maybe a video geared towards people who are considering relocation--maybe something about Summerlin/Henderson area would be cool to see.

[@paulamckenzie]

We both think that is an excellent idea for a video! You got our juices going on this, and we think we can do justice to the topic, so look for it on an upcoming Sunday. Thank you!

[@sandyblock9661]

I really really enjoy your Vegas and other places videos, but I don’t understand why people want to spend that kind of money to take a vacation in a construction zone. Is that place ever not under construction. I wouldn’t pay that kind of money for a construction zone room Walk along the strip? I started going to Vegas and 84 and I quit in 2010. It doesn’t intrigue me anymore. I loved the old Vegas and this is nothing like it at all now. I guess it’s all what you like to do to each your own . But you guys do a wonderful job. I enjoy you both. Keep up the good work.

[@paulamckenzie]

We certainly cannot disagree with your comments, and often when I drive to the Strip, I say the same thing - the endless ugly construction would make me choose to go elsewhere. In spite of all that, we sure appreciate you watching our channel anyway. 😊
