Road Report - Day 2

Stats: Drove 13 hours. Mpg: 35-37. Mph: 75-85. Gas Price: $1.49 - $1.99

Staying in Fernley, NV - about an hour away from Reno.

Mountains: They are majestic and beautiful.
Mountain Roads: Exhilerating. Going downhill at 75-80 mph without brakes is fun! Especailly as I was coasting and getting the best gas mileage possible. The downhill road into Salt Lake City was particularly exhilterating as there was traffic all doing the same thing.

I am definitely tired tonight. Am trying to stay up to 9 PM so I can call for free. Means it's 11 PM back in Illinois.

Should make it to Oakland by noon or little after. May not post for several days as I enjoy my visit.

Meanwhile the Journey continues.
