"There is the land I love the best. Fairer than all I can see. Deep in the heart of the golden west. Home means Nevada to me.” ❤️ Happy #NevadaDay! Today marks the day Nevada officially became the 36th state. It was a mere eight days before the 1864 presidential election and during the Civil War which is why we are the #BattleBorn state.
