Vegas Travel Nurses Up on Luck!
Who says that you can’t be up on luck in this economy? Travel nurses can experience the glitz, glamour and fun of Vegas at huge discounts. Turn challenging times into new and exciting opportunities where you can have the Vegas experience between 30-40 percent less. Shows, shopping, dining and other nightlife events are promoting some great specials that travel nurses won’t be able to refuse. And where else can you escape the city strip and within a short drive enjoy a hike to Red Rock Canyon or a refreshing swim in Lake Mead. Win big this summer by taking advantage of the fun and exciting opportunities Vegas has to offer.

Does anyone travel with cats?
I have two cats (a 4 year old tabby and a 3 year old Siamese). I want to travel but will not leave or give away my kitties (they will come with me). I am concerned that this might be stressful or difficult for them. Any travelers out there with cats?? Any thoughts or tips would be helpful. Do you fly or drive with your cats when you travel? My cats are somewhat comfortable in a car though have never attempted long drives (they come out to my mom's occasionally).
