Quick trip to Sand Mountain NV





Friday morning Ken had an eye appointment in Reno so we got up and headed out..got there an it turned out they had tried to call as the dr had an emergency and wasn't available..so we rescheduled for Dec. 6th..Did some running around and had lunch in town.  When we got home Ken suggested we get things ready and head for Sand mountain early Saturday morning...yayyyy...Russell and a few of his friends were there.  He had invited us but because of the dr appointment we told him we wouldn't make it for just one night..well that changed!  

Saturday we got up around 0330 and were out the door at 0515.  Headed to Fallon, NV where I did some grocery shopping and we were pulling into Sand Mt at about 0800.  Turns out that they had just got up and around and Jason had told Russell,  "why don't u text your mom and see where the bloody marys are" Russell said "yeah...and my breakfast sandwiches too"...just a running joke, as I always bring the bloody marys and we have breakfast sandwiches too..then we drove up...think they were happy to see us...Yep! 

Got the biscuits and gravy and eggs going...made up a batch of marys and all was good at sand mountain.  Relaxed and enjoyed...had a few snacks a little later and then a little later in the day a few more of their friends came up and we went over to the mountain and watched people going up and down riding quads, side by side and sand rails! Awesome day!

Back to camp and Serge and Andre bar b qued up some steaks, potatoes and veggies..I had polish sausages to bar b q but there was so much food we didn't.  Sat around the fire and enjoyed everyone's company..Life flight paid a visit to the mountain, as a sand rail was doing a wheelie sideways and ended up hitting a guy and girl on a atv...not good, but people did say he was hurt worse than her, but was awake and talking...

This morning got up and made breakfast sandwiches for everyone and then the boys took one last ride and we all got ready to go home.  

Russell had noticed he had a slow leak in his rear tire of the truck, Ken aired it up and down the road to the gas station..Well, he lost air to the point he had to put the spare on at the gas station.  

Home in about 1 and a half hours and now relaxing to catch up from the weekend...had a blast!!
