Finding myself in Winnemucca on a rainy day, I headed for this weird-ass joint mainly to escape the…read morerain. But OMG! What a find!!!

The Buckaroo Hall of Fame exhibits have a lot of interesting cowboy artifacts and info...plus there's a huge collection of mining belt buckles (!!) and stuffed dead animals. The visitors center has postcards and tourist info for all the local stuff. I seriously enjoyed myself here, rain or not! Winnemucca gets a bad rap, but I actually found the town very charming. Hey, it's better than Tonopah!!!

During both events, I was pleased by the amount of space, the cleanliness of the facilities, and the friendliness of the staff. I've only been into the East Hall for a brief moment. I did, however, get to check out the big game/ natural history type exhibit. I'm glad that WInnemucca has these facilities to help promote cultural and community events. I know the Convention Center has also played host to things like 4-H fairs, photography exhibits/ competitions, and sportsmans' group dinners.

Some movies come out on opening day (like the most recent Harry Potter) and some will come out a bit late. From what I've seen at least one new movie shows up each week.
