made it back to Corning after our Reno run. A bit lighter in the pocketbook but it was a fun trip. Purpose of the trip was to celebrate April's (Tami sister) birthday. Included in the group were Dale, Janet, Mark, April, Ashley, Tami, Doug, Becky and I. We managed to gamble, eat, gamble and eat some more. After breakfast on Friday we headed for a skateboard shop to get some new wheels for Trace and then, since Viriginia City was so close, we headed up the mountain to see what we could see. I only saw the inside of a couple of casinos so I contributed to the Virginia City economy while the other three did the tourist thing. Saturday morning we headed out to Cabela's. I found a little bench seat that will fit into the back of the Rhino, Becky came up with some corn nuts, one shirt and a bag of rootbeer candy. I think Tami got some stuff for the Twerps and Doug and Mark spent all their money on some video game trying to outshoot each other. Neither one did very well while I was watching them. To keep us out of the casinos for a little while Becky and I went geocaching Saturday afternoon. A sunny but windy day so we only found 5 caches and headed back to more food and gambling. The Truckee River runs right through Reno and a white water event is held in May. This is one portion of the river where they apparently "shoot the rapids". It might be fun to watch............I imagine the water is bitterly cold!!
Well, that was our last 3 days of activity. Sure hope it warms up. Later W&B
