Monday, May, 18

This morning was cool but by the time we got to Nevada it was pretty warm and windy.

We left Torrey Utah around 9:15 and arrived in Ely Nevada around 3:00. The drive was uneventful except for a little excitement when the screen on the drivers side window blew in and distracted me enough to send us onto the shoulder for a short distance. I got things under control pretty fast but it scared us a bit.

At Ely we decided to stop for the day at “The Prospector Casino Hotel and RV Park”. The RV spots are only $17.00 per night, they have a good restaurant and Patti can do a little gambling. She lost the last of her winnings from Yuma.

We plan to get an early start tomorrow and hopefully get as far as Boomtown. If I get tired before then we will maybe stop at Fallon.
