The Road to Elko and Home in 35 Hours

Linda and Larry were on their way to Utah to visit Larry's mother and we decided to tag along as far as Elko. We were on a caching quest to get a cache in every Nevada county.

We started out at 6:30am Friday morning and managed to turn a 5 hour trip to Elko into an 11 hour + trip. We arrived in Elko at a little before 6pm after picking up caches in 6 different counties. Counting the counties we already had we have completed 11 and have 6 to go. Those six are in southern Nevada so it will be fall before we even attempt them. The heat in southern Nevada at this time of year is awful.

Our trek began with Mike climbing a tree. He's done a lot of that since we started caching!! We also visited the infamous windmill that Mike and Larry have been taking pictures of for years. We decided that we needed some people in a windmill picture so we each posed under it.

After arriving in Elko, we had dinner at a Basque restraurant and had a delicious meal. Then it was home to bed for 4 very tired cachers.

The next morning we cached around the Elko area, had lunch, and then each headed our separate ways. Linda and Larry to Utah and Mike and I home. We arrived here about 5:30pm - 35 hours after we started.
