I thought you'd dig that.
I must say, it's going to be a yearly thing.
Really a good time, especially on friday when the crowds aren't to big.

This was just brought to my attention by an FTE'r in Texas:
Test of electric grid could be trying time, as plug-in clocks run too fast | Nation | Ne...

What's the world coming to when you can't trust 60Hz to be just that???

Hi everyone!
Hope you had a blessed Sunday.
We took the kids to the sitter & we met up with 4 others motorcyclists on Harleys. We took off from Carson City, NV., went through Genoa & up Kingsbury Grade. Went all the way around Lake Tahoe, stopped for lunch, then came down Kingsbury grade & stopped off at the Genoa bar before heading back to Carson City. What a awesome day for a ride!
Planning on another ride next Saturday. If anyone has a bike that wants to join us, let me know. I think we're all meeting at the Carl's Jr. (Gottschalks Mall) in Carson City at 11am & taking off from there. The more the merrier!

Isn't that Bar in Genoa supposed to be the oldest in Nevada?

Speaking of Nevada, I see USG shut down the town of Empire recently. Hopefully it'll be back when the housing bldg returns. Looks even more isolated than Plaster City.

It is pretty isolated. I've been through there a couple of times when Chukar hunting. There's a few people in Gerlach, and a pretty good little coffee shop/breakfast place called Bruno's. Of course it fills up during Burning Man.
