ELKO!

First day on the road! Wish I could say it was glorious, but it primarily consisted of the bland landscape that plagues Nevada. Despite the monotone nature of the sights, the feeling of being out on the open road, with the hot wind whipping through my hair was amazing.

After a fairly late start we plowed through Cali and across the Nevada state line. On the far side of the border sign there were casinos lining each side of the road, but once past Reno the landscape flattened out.

The day's driving ended in a town I had never heard of before, the beautiful, the wonderful, the almost out of hotels, Elko. Tomorrow we are Salt Lake City bound, which holds the promise of more exciting landscape and hopefully something more interesting to "blog" about :)
