Iron Horse Number 55

2019 West Again, Nevada, Road Trip, States

Our chosen route to California is taking us along I-80 to Reno. Although the idea of traveling US-50, the Loneliest Road in America is intriguing, an analysis of the frequency of gas stations compared to the distance we can travel between fill ups convinced us that we’d not be comfortable making the trek along that route. Instead we’re in Elko, Nevada tonight. It was a comfort knowing that we had made a reservation online at the Iron Horse RV Resort, especially since this is a weekend night in July. When we arrived we were pleased to learn that our Site 55 not only was a back in but that we had the privacy of a wall behind and a tree to look at through our stargazer window. Although we didn’t take advantage of it, all the amenities of the Hilton Garden Inn are available to those staying at the RV resort. At check in we learned that most people come here to gamble but that the California Trails Interpretive Center is just west of us. Guess where we’re going tomorrow!

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
