Las Vegas firefighters, police and members of the community gathered outside Fire Station 5 early Tuesday to honor 9/11 victims in a tradition known as tolling the bells.
Temperatures will be a few degrees below normal Wednesday across the Las Vegas Valley, and winds will be much calmer.
The two were part of the first group of U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers sent to Afghanistan less than a month after 9/11, where they secretly entered the country on horseback.
New Italian restaurants are popping up in the valley, and so far, the outlook is promising.
Summer will soon be but a memory, but it’s possible to prolong that sense of freedom just a little longer by quaffing a tiki drink.
