Here we are in beautiful Wells, NV. Just kidding of course, there really isn’t much here but we are spending the night at the Flying J Truck Stop for free. Our view is a distant mountain that has snow but the close up view is sage brush and tumble weeds. We could choose to stay in a small RV park nearby for $28+ but we are fine here as all we want to do is stay over night. The driving today was uneventful, the best sort of driving day. As we left Donner we noticed there is a Visitor’s Center now, in addition to the museum. It is closed for cleaning but looked pretty modern. We aren’t sure if it was there when we stayed in Oct. 2013 due to the snow. There were three deer by Hwy 80, one still in velvet. I hope they scamper back into the woods, they won’t last long there. Anglers were all along the Truckee River, made me think of Jeff’s love of fishing and how I myself caught trout in the river long ago. We ate at a Rest Stop about 40 miles south of Elko. The salmon we got pre-grilled at Safeway yesterday was very good. It’s early but saying goodnight from Wells, NV before we run low on power.
