The Journey - Day 2

Today we drove 598 miles, stopping for the night in Reno, NV. Let me tell you (in case you don't already know) I-80 through Utah and Nevada are very boring. There are some pretty sites, but mostly it's just boring.

Today's highlights included Great Salt Lake and the Salt Flats. Angie claims she saw a huge hairy hippo in Utah, but we're not really sure what it was. Our plan was to stop in Salt Lake City for some Barbecue at a place that has been featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, but we got to Salt Lake City a bit too early for lunch so we decided to pass.

We got to Reno around 4PM, settled into our room and are now getting ready to head to dinner at the Gold 'N Silver Inn (also featured on Triple D).

Tomorrow we'll see about hanging out in Reno for a little bit, get some breakfast at another Triple D joint and then head out on our way, probably stopping in Truckee for yet another Triple D stop and then finish our trip at our new home in San Jose.
