Pyramid Lake, Nevada

Turquoise waters of Pyramid Lake. On a good day.

The road to Sparks

Catdad & I finally took a mini vacation. We spent last Easter weekend with our cherished friends Nancy & Bob who live in Sparks NV, right next door to Reno. It's about a 2 hour drive from where we live. We drove north along the Pyramid Highway to check out Pyramid Lake. Really a surreal landscape. This is Indian country, Paiute to be exact. And it is high desert. It's usually a wind tunnel, but we got a really calm day. We hung out and had lunch at a local dive called Crosby's.. decent burgers & fries, and a lot of local color. Catdad has some better shots than I do, soon to follow.
