On the Road Again – Day 1 of our Road Trip to Iowa with Detours to see Friends and Family.

Today was day one of a three week road trip. We are heading to Iowa for Duke’s high school reunion.

According to our plan, today was the longest day of driving, 500 miles from Reno to Filmore, Utah. We were on highway 50 crossing Nevada for most of the day. Highway 50 is called the loneliest highway in America. We saw lots of sagebrush, mountains, and a couple of small towns.

We stopped for a picnic lunch.

For dinner we got some great tacos at Tacos los Panchos in Fillmore.
