Quiet dark nights are a favorite part of our travels and adventures. Nevada delivers so this is where we headed for two nights. The story of our short trip can be found on our blog -

The lady looks good on that "tank".

Are you going to build a larger garage?

Thanks for the nice ride.

Thanks again for the trip to that area-memories!  Getting time to make my  run past there and out to the Desatoyas  and Edwards Creek before I get to old or the Navy gets it all!   I sure hope the latest Navy land grab out in that general area doesn't take place, but from what I was reading in the paper the last call for comments  on the EIS were just advertised a couple of weeks ago!  I spent allot of time in that country along time ago, need to see how much it changed!  Anyway, thanks for taking us along-what was that other trip you and the Lady took out east of there several years go coming down from the north, down toward Fish Creek, Pleasant Valley, Austin-have to go revisit that TR again.

For a heavy tracked vehicle, we'd have to beef up a lot more than the garage! Ah, but what a camping vehicle to have if your neighbors get too loud, leave bright lights on, etc..............   :)

Good one, getting another shooter!

Churchill has been one of our "drive in after dark" safe spots.   But, it's always good to boondock too.

 

We need to see more speed goats.
