ON THE ROAD JUNE/JULY 2020/21 IN AND OUT OF NEVADA

Shortly after our Betaso salads at Betaso restaurant, it was coming on to bed time. Not much to say about our overnight spot except that is was basically perfect for an overnight stop ;’-). Before heading out in the early morning I was able to get in a very short but somewhat interesting bike ride. I love slowly drifting through little towns or neighborhoods on my bike. Here in Wells, NV I got that opportunity. This photo is typical west…

This next photo could well be typical of much of the west…I would add that shooting can cause much more than wildfires.

There were several horses in a dry and dusty corral that looked hot and dusty. They looked so forlorn that I had no desire to take a photo. They must adapt to these hot and dry conditions and I’m sure the ranch hands give them hay and water, but not seeing any of that made me feel bad for the horses.

Nevada was mostly a drive through state. We entered into Jackpot where there are casinos lining the roadway, one right after the other. I did note the Hold ‘Em Street sign in the last post. As we drove through another town — of course there were more casinos. This one caught our eye…

It is located on an appropriately named street …

We took time to also drive through another town that I had read somewhere is a typical Cowboy Town. We did not find it such, but did see a lot of cowboy/cowgirl boots along the way. I got a photo of only one, but there were many.

More casinos through towns, and a lot of empty prairie along our drive to exit Nevada and enter California. We are now at Sarah’s and will be staying put for about two weeks now. We’ll see what I come up with to blog about ;’-)
