Nevada and Utah


Monday afternoon we headed out of Paradise for Ely, Nevada. Paul's older brother lives near McGill. He and his wife built a log home on the Indian Reservation (she is Paiute). We spent 2 days and enjoyed getting to know them better and the peace and quiet of the hills. Delane is quite a bow hunter. She has trophy bear, mt. lion, wild boar, elk, deer, and numberless other animals.
The next stop is Hurricane, Utah at Jerry and Deb's house. They have been married about 2 years. Their home has the most amazing views out of every window. The picture is just one of the views from their house. The mountains, hills, and rocks are varied with color and texture. It's looks like an early spring or a false spring. There are grasses sprouting up on the hills and looking beautiful.
Today Paul and Jerry took a short motorcycle ride up around the reservoir and some of their land. The weather was good, 60ish but it's starting to cloud up now. They are quite a pair on matching Harley Davidson's. Both bikes are red Screamin Eagle V-Rods.
I got a call from home today and Mt. Redoubt still hasn't blown and now it's calming down and may not blow right away. Maybe it's waiting for us to get home, lol.
Next stop, Las Vegas!!!
