Towaoc, Colorado to Reno, Nevada

Duke and I are home. We drove from southwestern Colorado to Midway, Utah, where we spent two nights with Duke’s brother and his wife. From Midway we drove home.

Soon after leaving Ute Mountain Casino where we spent the night in Towaoc we stopped for coffee and bagels in nearby Cortez, Colorado.

Then we spent an hour exploring a bit of Arches National Park.

We had probably the best meal of the trip with Bill and Berna, in Midway, at Midway Mercantile.

Monday we drove 570 miles west, along Interstate 80, home to Reno.

At the Bonneville Salt Flats Rest Area on Interstate 80.

We travelled a total of 6,458 miles, were in 13 states, saw some great sites and had wonderful visits with friends and family. It was a great four and a half week road trip. Now we only have three weeks to catch up at home, then it’s off to Argentina!

Reno, Nevada to West Wendover, Nevada

We started a month long U.S. road trip today. It is fun and exciting to be on the road again. We are going to Duke’s 55th High School reunion in Iowa and to my niece’s wedding in Tennessee. If you would like to see our planned itinerary you can see it here.

We drove 405 miles to West Wendover on the Nevada/Utah border. We stopped several times to stretch our legs..
