Fought Head Winds All The Way..........

from Las Vegas to Tonopah today and arrived shortly before noon. Got rigs set up, had lunch with Larry and Audrey and then "B", Larry and I set out to hunt down some of the caches here in Tonopah. We've got around 60 on our list and this afternoon we found 19 before the COLD got to us. Man, we left Yuma too soon............filled up the M/H with gas when we arrived and couldn't wash our windshield 'cause the washers were still frozen over!

Will try it again tomorrow, if the winds die down it won't seem as cold; but, expect it to be around 28 degrees tonight. Got the electric heater going and it's losing ground to the cold. Guess we'll have to fire up the propane heater pretty soon. Lucky we made reservations 'cause a lot of rigs came rolling in and there's only 20 RV spaces with hookups. We got electricity, satellite dish set up, gambling hall about 50 yards away so we're doing OK..............except for the gambling. Made a $20.00 contribution to them and called it a day.

More caching tomorrow. Fortunately we're able to connect with an open wifi signal so making use of it while we can.

They got some pretty good biscuits and gravy at the restaurant.........and they even give "old folks" discounts! Doesn't get any better.............more tomorrow if we don't freeze our tails off tonight. W&B
