Day 1 - July 31st - Springfield, OR - Winnemucca, NV

---

Well, we made it at last. What a great ride it was. I have never seen so much wildlife as I did this time. We saw, wild horses, burros, coyotes and a ground hog. I have been this way so many times and never seen a thing. It was great to see so many animals, especially since it was so hot out. We came upon an older couple in a semi truck (more like a semi RV)from Iowa that had just hit a baby calf. After checking on them and making sure they were alright, we continued on. The calf was just fine as well. We had a nice dinner and are now relaxing while the kids swim. We have a short drive tomorrow to Wendover, Nevada. I plan to lay by the pool all day while the rest of my group goes to the Wendover museum. This pool is just to good to pass up. Of course I have talked my mom into staying with me as well.
