    Drive to pickup Melissa

    April 1 in the United States ⋅ 🌧 48 °F

    The drive on Wednesday started in dark and rain at 7:00am. It was on and off rain all the way to Reno. Never hard and traffic was light the whole trip. I arrived at the hotel at 2:00pm exactly 8 hours after my start. 2 gas stops along the way.
    I spent the afternoon exploring Reno. Visited my new remote mailbox and walked the downtown casino strip. The strip is effectively gone! Only 2 casino groups remain

    Thursday, the last of the storm was leaving the area. High winds and chain control for just a couple miles over Donner summit. I arrived in Walnut Creek with a couple extra hours that i spent at the pool.

  • Tabernacle practice concert

    April 9 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F

    After visiting the Museum of Church History across the street, we hung out in Temple Square to hear the rehearsal for the Tabernacle Choir.
    In addition to about 200 vocalist and an enormous pipe organ, the performance included a full orchestra! The songs seemed contemporary and focused more on the harmony of the voices than the impact of something like a show choir.Read more

  • Antelope island

    April 10 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F

    Out of the city and into the wilderness! - Or at least a wildlife preserve and historical ranch on a Salt Lake oasis. Bison roamed on the muddy shores, and the imported cottonwood trees were blooming so fiercely it looked like snow. Ate buffalo burgers and the biting flies didn't make a meal of usRead more

  • Donner summit

    April 14 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F

    We thought winter was over, but the weather decided to gift us fresh snow on our way back through the Sierras without having to drive through the storm itself. Donner lake view is spectacular, enough to distract me from actually paying attention to what's in frame. Kida's first time playing in snow! She was unimpressed with having cold paws.Read more
