My Connections

I liked learning about this state because it was very interesting. It was a state that I never really thought it was an interesting state but after this report it is definitely a nice state to learn about. The most interesting fact that I learned was Nevada name before it was a state was Washoe. I would definitely like to visit because I haven't been here before. This is why I would visit Nevada. I would visit Nevada because it has fun actives to do and has nice view to look at.
