VORRA was in town! Champagne Sunday ride in the SXS. Reno and Carson City today.

 Friday afternoon we headed to town for a quick stop at Raley's and then to Karen's store and to see what vehicles had come in for the Yerington 250. VORRA is in town for the weekend! 

They had a poker run there wasn't that many in yet. We visited with Karen at her store for a bit and then walked downtown. 

VORRA!


We stopped by Joel and Randi's place about 2 miles from us, but they were out for a ride. 

A beautiful cover for their 5th wheel on their property


In the evening we visited with John and Karen before calling it a night.

Saturday morning we got ourselves going to find a place in the desert to watch the races. BLM had changed the track so it wasn't as good a spot as we normally get. We met Joel and Randi, along with their friend Chris and his daughter. 

A nice morning and early afternoon was enjoyed. It was a beautiful day and by the end you could have had shorts on, it was that warm. 


Joel and Randi's new sxs  (Yellow) and Chris's next to that. 


In the late afternoon we headed to John and Karen's for a fire and Happy Hour. 

Sunday was Champagne Sunday once again. A little different as we were going to meet  up with John and Karen for a nice side by side ride to Walker River State Recreation Area. They hadn't been and wanted to check out camp sites. Ended up being about a 40 mile round trip. Very nice day for a ride! 

Changed it up from pizza this week. Conder Ranch sausage,
potatoes and eggs, it's what's for breakfast! YUM!

Of course mimosas! ๐Ÿ’—

Pork steak, eggs and potatoes. My bowl fo mish mash. I 
know my friend Irene just lovers this ...NOT! LOL. 








Coming out of the park..lol. 

Thank you Seth and Holly for my Christmas present! Used it
to transport my mimosa to the park! YUM! ๐Ÿ’•


I made up some coleslaw and we took hot links next door later in the day. Most of Karen's family came over for a barbecue. She did ribs and they were delicious. 

This morning we were up and out of the house by 0630. We were headed to Reno as Ken had a ophthalmology appointment for 0830. Traffic sucked in Dayton so we were late, but they got him in anyway. This is a dr he's seen for years who has now branched out on his own rather than the group he's been with forever. Now Ken will continue to be seen 2x a year but with only 1 doctor rather than 2! ๐Ÿ˜

After he was done, we stopped at Total Wine for a small pickup then on to AAA which is in the same parking lot. Well, we were going to get the new car registered but couldn't find the insurance papers. We headed to Carson City as Ken had to have labs done. I got on Progressive and was able to download the card onto my phone. Stopped at our safe deposit box in Reno and then back to AAA. Got the car done and then to a UPS store so I could send back the dash cover to Amazon. 

By then we were hungry. Gassed up the car and then on to Betsy's for a delicious linner! On to the room in Carson and here we are ๐Ÿ˜€

Ken has to be at Carson Hospital tomorrow am at 0645 to get ready for his angiogram. We're only 5 minutes away which makes staying here  worthwhile! 5 minutes compared to 2+ hours. 

Forgot to mention on the last blog that as of March 13th we've been in the house for 11 years! Ken also turned on the water in the outhouse and outdoor kitchen! Woohoo! How nice it is to have both working now! Spring is here (we hope). 

Enjoy, and have a wonderful evening! We are too! ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿท

  2. It's so nice that you are close to everything, yet home feels like you are all by yourself. Hope Kens tests go well.

  3. I sure wish we had a Total Wine near us. Maybe we should have considered that when looking for property!

  4. Love the view of the road in the CanAm. The gates from the park were funny. I’m sure you enjoyed the rally even if the view wasn’t quite as good as last year.
    Good luck Ken.
