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!
Fenton House and Spaniards Inn
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
