DAY 1 OF TRIP TO SAVANNAH

There was some notice today when I signed in that for European users, you need to know that Google puts some cookies on your computer when you visit this site. I think this is mostly for statistics. I don't put anything to track that you look at this, other than if you subscribe to get updates.

We were about an hour late leaving home. Jim and Ellen Jo arrived on time, but we weren't ready to go yet. Our age is slowing us down, so we were not able to fully load the Morgan into it's new trailer and load the truck with MOA stuff on time.

Jim, Phil, Ellen Jo and Elaine 

It was a very warm day for Jim and Ellen Jo in their Morgan as we passed through Auburn. It cooled down a bit as we headed over Hwy 80 and then heated up again around Reno.
Philip was very pleased the way the truck handled with the trailer behind us going up and down the hills.

We travelled up to over 7000 feet and back down going over Donner Summit. I can't imagine being the Donner party and taking that trip.

Heading toward Hwy 50, America's Loneliest Highway, we stopped for the night in Fallon NV. Tomorrow we head out on Hwy 50 to Ely Nevada. 

Stopping at the Nevada State Line

Kristi reports that Healey doesn't want to be disturbed. Healey and Bentley were clearly sad when we were getting ready to go. They will be missed so much, but at least cat sitter Kristi now has a phone so we can get pictures and I will even teach her how to use FaceTime. However, that doesn't make up for our evening cuddles.

People in Fallon are on their way to Burning Man. This was a happy group.

Upon our hoteliers recommendation, we at THE WOK in town. It was a decent meal and definitely much cheaper than in the Bay area.

Philip just feel asleep reading his tablet, and dropped it on the floor and broke it. So it will be awhile before he can communicate with the outside world.
