You didn’t think i would forget to post today, did you? Not after being conscientious enough to post every single day while we were in Elko using nothing more than my (supa-cool) iPhone? Of course not! But I wanted to post some pictures of what your average road trip between Elko and Reno looks like. And of course I couldn’t just upload pictures STRAIGHT FROM THE iPHONE (because surely it didn’t work this last weekend). So I had to wait until I got home and then I had to futz with the pictures in Lightroom (which wanted to be updated first). And we needed dinner. And now the kids want to go to bed. So this is actually taking a lot longer than I expected. Whoops. Anyhow… here goes. Be prepared for a lot of BROWN (and water, as it was a rather wet day here in Nevada).
When ISN’T there road work going on in Nevada??
My traveling companion
See? Lots of brown.
And lots of trucks.
Getting closer to Winnemucca
We ALWAYS stop here for a break. ALWAYS.
Lots of little raindrops on the windshield today.
Liam is content with his stuffed animals, sippy cup and cars.
Moo!
This truck stop is almost exactly halfway between Elko and Reno.
Snow!
This “building” looks more and more rundown each time we travel past it. Someday I’ll imagine it won’t be there anymore.
Once again… lots of trucks
This was the first and last time we saw the sun today.
Our first glimpse of the Sierra Mountains since last week.
Yay! We can see Reno!
And up the interstate towards home… at last!

Wow is it always that brown? Or just in the fall? And don’t y’all have any TREES there? Wow. What a totally different looking landscape than Missouri!
Neat pics. Thankx for sharing
This is a great idea! All the photos came out really well, too. I love the shot of Liam with all his stuff piled on him. Reminds me of Pumpkin on long trips. Just bring EVERYTHING in case we need it because heaven forbid we forget the ONE thing that she wants after we’re 50 miles down the road!!
Thanks for sharing,
Ciao
