Yesterday we left Tahoe and headed east, continuing our journey back home. We stopped in Reno for another In-N-Out fix. (INO isn't in Colorado, so we have to get it when we can!) Sofa king good!!!
We stopped in Elko for the night. My dad used to gather up a couple of friends and come here to play poker and sit in the sports book. I'm sure Elko has changed since the 90s, but it's still got a bit of wild west charm. The casinos are saloon-ish and the bar girls are a little beer hall, but the slots are loose and the table games are cheap. I can see why Daddy liked it here.
Today we're heading to Park City for a couple of days and then finally home. There are a few good breweries along the way, and tons of beautiful scenery...well, once we get into Utah.
I'm getting a little homesick (finally...IKR?). I'm dreading having to go through the accumulated mail, but I look forward to sleeping in my own bed with my big soft pillows. I miss local news and watching the Tonight Show (out here it doesn't start until 11:30...and I'm asleep by then). I miss cooking and home cooked meals. I'm looking forward to unpacking and not living out of a suitcase that has to be packed and moved almost every morning. Yep, it's the little things.
