Here I am in the great state of Nevada. We had a pleasant drive in the Tesla, with Trevor carefully plotting the charge stations along the way. We are staying at the Saddle West, the same motel that Robin and I stayed at when we came a couple of years ago, for the hand gun class at Front Sight. It all looks very familiar. Nice pool and, of course, casino. We had an early breakfast, Trevor drove off to his class - a private class with one other person, his friend Tom. I will see him about six tonight. Trevor and Tom and I had a great Japanese dinner in Pahrump. Tom is a naturalized citizen from Berlin originally, and a good conversationalist.
No call from Bri last night because she lost her cell phone and waited for David to come home so she could find it. It was just as well, because I had put mine on charge before we left for dinner, and didn't have it on me - a very rare event.
The desert on this side is magnificently wild and sculpted. We stopped to look at an obsidian vein near the highway.Trevor scrambled out and mined a few hunks. Very few signs of human habitation for miles and miles. You can carry a weapon here!
Now I will go out exploring, before it gets too hot.
Love, to all, Val
Hope you had fun exploring! I sympathize with the "before it gets too hot" planning. The weather broke today, got to 90 and is now in the 70s. Got some garden work done that required lower temps and will continue on more garden tasks while the going is good. I saw a friend's house, she moved while I was in Washington. Jackie and her kids have moved into a house next to East Nic HS where Mack went to school. Their landlady is a rancher. They have lambs within 50 feet of the house. The house was recently remodeled, and it's stunning. She's gone back to school and would like to be an interior designer. Most I find cold, her's are warm and friendly to families and friends while still being a place of beauty.
