Day one of our Goode family reunion trip for 2015 ended 505 miles from home in Winnemucca, Nevada after we found this cute, old fashioned room, for only $48 including tax. It was even named Santa Cruz, which has meaning to us as you know that our son attended college there.
We started from the Pacific Ocean, drove to Medford Oregon for my husbands 10:30 appointment at his dentists and then drove Klamath Falls, Lakeview and the dreaded, Lakeview to Winnemucca, 206 miles of nothing, and we've endured both blizzard and broken air conditioner there but the extra rain in that area last winter was making it more green than usual and lovely in a way. Plus, minor detail, but I'm 52 and that was the first time I've driven a stick shift since I was 15.
