morning all, she is from Japan.
I did not want to get up this morning! we got home last night (this morning) at 01:30. on the way home I got behind a drunk driver so i called 911, there were no officers around so I followed him for about 15 minutes calling dispatch when he would change roads. he kept going down the same highway exiting and making a u turn than back the same highway exiting and making a u turn. finally just before the officers got there we were at a red light, he shuts the car off gets out goes over to the light pole and pee's on it just about 30 seconds before the officer pulls up behind me.

Good morning Mark & Bart. You did the right thing Bart. We had a deal the other day between Fallon & Schurz on hwy 95. We were coming home running about 67 mph in a 70 mph. There was only a few cars on the road. This car came up behind me & pulls out to pass several car lengths behind us. There was a truck coming the other way. I thought the car pulled back behind me. The next thing I know we are three abreast on a two lane road. The truck was off in the dirt. This car just kept on traveling at about 80+ mph. Well, it took me a few seconds to recover my composer. We had the Jeep so I sped up to about 90 mph to catch this car & get a plate # (California). So Vici called it in to the NHP. Well we kept the car in sight In Schurz I see a Tribal Police car flip a U-Turn & red light this car. Well we pulled up a distance behind the officer stayed in the car. When he started back to his car we waved him to us & told him what happened gave him the plate # & told him we would sign a ticket. Well he had her 15 over in Schruz plus wrote her for speed & unsafe passing which I signed. If she fights it it will be here in Hawthorne. Mineral County as a rule throws the book at out of State.
We are in the Burning Man's papers & information to stay out of Mineral County unless you want to be stopped & searched.

Good Evening Everybody.
Nice warm day here. Did a little work early this morning. Spent the rest of the day in the cool. We have got a lot done in the last few weeks. We got moved back into our small house. I started to build a shop 12 years ago. (We have out buildings & I was converting one into a shop.) Well I plan on finishing it in the next few months. It is completely gutted as per this AM. Now comes the remodel. The electricity is in the building & the roof insulated that is where I stopped 12 years ago.
