Getting weird in Nevada with art, history, ghosts & clowns

Being called "weird" may seem like an insult. Not so for Nevada. It is a state that embraces the moniker of weird, welcomes its weirdness, revels in its weirdness. That's what makes weird Nevada attractions so entertaining on a road trip. If it's weird, call it weird. Laugh, shrug, scratch your head, and move on to the next weird wonder. It's all part of the Nevada travel experience.

I wandered by car through Nevada a few times during and after the COVID pandemic - "distancing" is the norm there with barely 28 people per square mile - and found myself seeking out odd things to see and do, mapping strange things to photograph, and gawking at some oddity that many Nevadans just seemed to accept as "normal" - whatever that is in that wondrous state. This is a state that even boasts the hashtag #weirdnevada to underscore it's outlying, ode-to-odd character. Read more about weird Nevada.
