I am up early reading and laughing and thinking what a wonderful place the Heart of America is...
There is a guy from north of Vancouver who headed to the Armpit of America in an effort to be the first person to achieve a human-powered speed of 1/10 the speed of sound. While attending the race a BC writer could not resist writing an article about the
political opinion at Donna's Ranch.
That lead me to this
example of local boosterism.
Having driven down some of the lonely back roads of Nevada, and having just a small streak of curmudgeon-like hermit personality,
I do appreciate the thought and simply must stop the next time that I drive I-80 through the Heart of America.
All this reminded me of my times driving the lonely highways of the Nevada desert. The photos shown are from my trip through Nevada at the end of December, 2000. I drove from Reno south through the town of Beatty to Death Valley. I spent New Year's Eve at the best hotel in Beatty.
