The home of the 100th Meridian, and they won't let you forget it.  It was a transcontinental railroad goal line 135+ years ago.  Now, call me a cynic, but if your community hasn't accomplished anything noteworthy in the 135+ years since, perhaps you should just close up shop and go home.

Sort of speaks for itself, eh?  It's the welcome sign for Boulder City..	If there's one thing that says "authentic Mexican food", it's a giant, concrete elephant.	The Cozad Depot -- back when the town was a thriving hub of westward expansion activity.
So... if you want to read ALL about why the 100th Meridian is important, impressive, and worth getting off the highway, go nuts.  We read it, photographed it, and got the heck out of town.
