Yesterday we passed out of Utah and back into Nevada, gaining an hour on the clock (Pacific time here rather than Mountain Time in Utah) and drove a short distance to Pioche, one of our favourite little places we visited on our first trip to the States.  We stayed last night at the Overland Hotel and Saloon and propped up the bar for a significant period of our stay with hosts Donna and Blondie – ok so a very many beers later we grabbed food at the Silver Cafe and then oops – time for more beers back at the saloon bar.  Its really cool over here at the moment since everything is decorated ready for halloween – the saloon itself has a full size coffin complete with monster in the front!  So, off today back towards Vegas and a major detour to a teeny little watering hole – the Ale’Inn.  Sounds like it might just have to be more beers this evening……

The holiday is now going too fast, nearly back to Vegas and of course only round the corner from a return to work (boo!).  Still, will we make the plane or just vanish back into Nevada?????
