Family Time

Sat, Sun Jun 16-17 - We got out of Winnemucca as early as possible - didn't even stay for the free continental 'breakfast' they offered - we couldn't leave town fast enough. We stopped in Sparks, NV for gas, and played some spare change we had from tolls in the slot machines, ending up with $25 - only stayed about 1/2 hour, since we wanted to get to CA as early as possible.

Once we got into the familiar territory of the Sierra Nevada mountains, both of us heaved sighs of relief - and when we crossed the border into California,  even more so!  We got to Carol's sister's house in time to join in the party for her mother's 90.5 birthday party. We spent the rest of the weekend visiting with family, reminiscing, and just resting up for the final stretch of our drive on Monday.
