Head to Nevada

Well we left our family in Sun Valley. It was a great visit. Thanks again you guys. Yes Louise we did listen to the Carpenters as soon as we got in the car. Now we are off to Silver Springs to visit Derek's mom. We are so excited. We are helping her get her 1st computer. Now she can email the family.



We made it to Nevada!!!!! Not to much weather to worry about. The drive was nice.




We have seem so much wildlife on this trip. In honor of Derek's Dad I snapped this wildlife shot of "slow elk"


Derek thought this was a perfect summer home for us! He got all excited because it was metal stud and lath and plaster. Probably would not be to bad in the summer but winter???? Brrrrr.

Stopped to stretch our legs and read about the California Trail.

Yes, Derek found fireworks. He was like a kid in a candy store. We managed to come out with only a few to light when we get down to his sister's in CA.

How can you not love a town called Winnamucca!

Of course this was a mandatory stop. Cute little town and we had to stop a smooch under the sign.

We finally made it into town. This sign is just 5 minutes from Iris'. It is going to be so nice to see her......and of course eat her yummy cooking. Tomorrow it is off to get a new computer for her.

Iris and Ozzie come out to greet us!

Just in case you would like to know we stopped searching for radio stations today. Below is our music CD listening for the day:

The Carpenters - can't go wrong with this one

Warren Xevon - odd but very cool

Black Flag - all we needed was a mohawk and a mosh pit

Barry Manilow - need I say more?

80's party mix - love the 80's alternative mix......thanks Starbucks

Somehow it all seemed to flow
