Well, I showed up at 4:15 pm on a Monday ready to find out some info about Carson City. I am from San Diego, CA and was vacationing in Lake Tahoe. We are leaving tomorrow, so this was the last chance to find out anything. Checked the Nevada museum....closed on Mondays. 😑 Next...visitor’s center. Open until 5 pm...perfect! Get there and see the flashing “Open” neon sign. Grabbed the door. Locked! No one around at all. Thanks a lot for nothing. 😑😑😑
