Traveling west

[flathead]

Leaving today for Vegas by rail. I have a layover in both Chicago and Salt Lake City. I'd love to take a few minutes and visit. Is there a house near the train staion in either city. What are the "quick tour" highlights I can check out? Anybody in Vegas or vicinity, I'll be there for a week. The Mrs and I are going to celebrate our 30th by having Elvis renew our vows. Should be a good time.
