Sam's Town RV Park Las Vegas, NV

We left Fernley at 8:30 this morning. The trip was uneventful, but the scenery is terrific. Some hills were bare.

Your pics brought back memories. While still working, we built several gold processing plants at the mines in that area. I think you meant to label that lake photo "Walker Lake" .
