    Mt Charleston

    22. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    We pulled in last night in the dark and couldn’t get any pictures. To our surprise, the campground was marked “full” and the gate was closed. I muscled the gate open and we found the camp hosts who were holding a spot for us (thank goodness). This morning we woke up in a beautiful setting—I really can’t believe this is 30 minutes outside Vegas. We decided to stay an extra night since the campground is so nice and we can take the truck anywhere we need to go.Les mer

    New country

    21. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 19 °C

    From here on out, it’s all new road to us. When we went to Utah we turned east on the 6, so this is our first time on this part of Hwy 95. I do love the scraggly Joshua trees growing everywhere.

    And then this happened...

    21. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    We almost made it out of Hawthorne when we felt a bump and something was wrong. The truck tire was completely shredded. We thought we’d be down for hours, but luckily we were in a town and AAA sent someone out immediately to replace the tire. Our second stroke of luck was that the tire was a real tire, not just a dummy. Believe it or not, we were back on the road in 45 minutes. I’ve had enough excitement for one trip already!Les mer

    Walker Lake

    21. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    After our long wait we made it down to Walker Lake, where we spent the first night dry camping on our way out to Utah on our maiden RV voyage. It feels incredibly isolated out here but surprisingly the campground is quite full.Les mer

    Roadblock

    21. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    I was feeling so hopeful about getting down to the campground in daylight but no such luck. A few miles south of Fallon they closed our highway and we had to wait for it to reopen. Turns out a semi and a compact car squished together and it required two large tow trucks and a lot of emergency service vehicles to clear the road. 90 minutes later we are on our way. We did get to see a nice family of free range cows at least while we were waiting!Les mer

    Getting an (early?) start

    20. april 2018, Forente stater ⋅ 🌙 21 °C

    We packed up the RV and decided to leave at night to get a head start on the drive. Hopefully we can get a few hours down the road so our drive tomorrow (almost all the way to Vegas) will be smooth. Eric is a trooper and willing to drive at night!

    We already had a mini-adventure: about 10 miles away from home we ran over a piece of tarp with metal poles. It got stuck up underneath us and we were dragging it along so we had to make an emergency stop so Eric could rescue us. Whew!    Les mer
