Silver Moon LodgeBest of IgoUgo

Hotel

The adage that you get what you pay for proves true. There was nothing fancy here, but it was a nice clean room with  comfortable beds. The biggest disappointment was that the Internet is dial-up. The lobby has one DSL jack, but it was down for part of our stay. The front desk was very knowledgeable and helpful in recommending things to do as well as answering questions.

Central Connection CafeBest of IgoUgo

Restaurant

This is an awesome coffee house and sandwich shop. It is a wi-fi hot spot and also has one computer for general use. The staff was great and very helpful. It appears to be a hole-in-the-wall, but the food is great and the prices are low. They have hot teas as well as coffee and a sandwich menu. They are in the downtown area between 3rd and 4th streets. They also have beer on tap for under $3 for a pint.

National Museum of Nuclear Science & HistoryBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "National Atomic Museum"

I was very interested in the military aspects of the museum and was surprised by the extent of the exhibit. It was very educational, and I was wishing my sons could have been there with me. It is very affordable, and even though, I did not have time, it's good to mention that they show movies about different aspects of nuclear history. The $5 admission was very reasonable.
