The last few days have been mostly travel days. We moved from Moab and stayed in this small town called Green River. Just a small little place along I-70.
We woke up in the morning and Amanda had to get some work done. I played golf while she worked and then we hit the road. We decided to drive to the Utah-Nevada border, which was about a four-hour drive. There are things to see along the route but most everything is south of the interstate. I will come back later in the year and tackle that area.
We got a hotel for the night. Something we plan on doing once a week for the rest of the trip. Gives us the ability to get a good night’s sleep and take a shower and organize ourselves. It’s a bit easier when you have someone to split the expenses with.
The motel is built right on the border. I’m not sure for certain but it seems that half of the hotel is in Nevada and the other half is in Utah. Of course, the main building with the small casino is on the Nevada side. Besides the few buildings here there is nothing around. We are literally in the middle of nowhere. First time in Nevada though.
We didn’t realize that Nevada is in the Pacific Time Zone. So when we crossed the border we gained an hour. So I was up nice and early today. Sun will set around 8 o’clock here so we have to keep that in mind.
We will leave shortly for Great Basin and our plan is to spend three days there and then move north. Our plan is to get to Boise by next Friday but we will see what happens.
