Today began very
early (for us) as we walked the dogs just after 7 and then prepared to leave
after breakfast. But before leaving
Pahrump we needed propane and fuel for both the motorhome and the car. Amazingly, all tasks were completed before
11 and we were on the road to Tonopah, NV, through and over miles and miles of
desert…no wildlife, no small towns except Beatty and Goldfield, an old mining
town, now an historic district. Not much
here now in Goldfield, but the remaining homes and downtown indicate
quite a bustling and thriving community in more ”golden” times. Dirt devils appeared frequently among the
sparse tumbleweed and Joshua trees, as it was a very windy travel. We are settled in a Passport America Park in
Tonopah, full services for $10. This park has seen better days! We have been buffeted by the SSE winds this
afternoon…rockin’ and rollin’ you might say.
Rain is in the forecast for overnight; sure hope it is not s*** as we
sit at a 6100 foot elevation.
