hey friends and relies..

yesterday morning we left Virginia City, NV and i wanted to avoid interstate traffic so we took the loneliest road in America, hwy 50.. and so it was.. best was only a few big trucks and it's a two lane road.. clouds were beautiful and we loved the sage brush and mountains and one very interesting SHOE TREE.. made me do a huey and go back for closer look and some photos..

we are still picking up things we forgot.. a set of keys for Peg. we stopped at a walmart superstore, which is great for us because it has food and other stuff we need. we picked up the keys, four eye glass holders for the visor, a lug wrench which has 4 sockets, some short bread cookies to treat the driver when he is drinking coffee, and some other things i don't remember now.. but it was a productive stop.. so then it was back on the road again with looming cumulus nympho clouds billowing all over the sky.. with flat bottoms even.. kind of like fruit trees that have the tops cut all at the same level with large whirling blades.. there was a little rain interspersed with sun.. no problems though.. we stopped at the Ely, NV KOA for the night and watched the Lakers lose a close one.. each stop we have to have the tv auto check the chanels available for that location.. the first night out when i did the check in Virginia City i could not get any chanels so after trying a number of things i noticed that when the tv was installed in san jose they did not run a coax cable from the tv to the connection on the wall of the roadtrek.. of course i didn't have one of those with me so we had to wait to get one of those at that walmart stop..

today we asked where was a good breaky haunt unanomous consensus was the Nevada Hotel which did indeed have a wonderful breakfast so we had enough to cover for lunch.. we waddled to the RT and took off for Idaho Falls but with losing an hour with time zone change and leaving about 10:30 we decided to settle for twin falls rather than Idaho falls. that worked well and the day was much shorter. we are already a day behind the calendar schedule, we expected to be in Jackson Wyo today but those two days in Virginia City put us behind.. it doesn't matter really except for friday we have reservations for the Fishing Bridge Campground in Yellowstone Park for 5 nights, so Jackson might not get as much attention as we had wanted, but that's no big..

hope all you are well and enjoying your activities, we will keep you up to date when we can break away from having fun and seeing beautiful things..

our love and best to you all,
Pegndon.. on the road with fun in the back seat..
