    Mormon food, fresh grave, Egyptian room, white Area 51 bus, petroglyphs, dry lake bed racing, waste management collection, you and Jessica looked cool in your robes! Happy Winter Solstice!

    Alamo is one of my mandatory pit stops when travelling Hwy 93. I was somewhat amused when you referred to the store in Alamo as "a convenience store and gas station." It is actually a fairly large supermarket with meat and produce departments. They also have a fast food carryout there, unless it closed for the pandemic.
    I had no idea that Stonehenge, aka RyanHenge existed, and I've traveled that route dozens of times over the years. Thank you for the info. I'll stop by next time.
    BTW there is another cemetery just north of Alamo. It is visible from Hwy 93 and on the east side of the highway. I think it has many of the local pioneer settlers graves and may be worth your while to visit next time you're in the area.
    Have a Happy New Year

I'm from Reno and I now know I've not explored Nevada enough, a must do for myself soon. Being ex Air Force the info on the X-15 truly grabbed my attention, thank you! Love your channel, be safe 'of course' and I'll stay tuned more often. Awesome to see Jessica once again.

    A few miles past Texas Lake (north-east) there are two old abandoned cemeteries, Delamar and Helene. One of the best petroglyph sites is in an area called the Shooting Gallery west of Alamo in the Badger Valley. There are a gazillion (well maybe only half a gazillion) of them with many dating back pre bow and arrow.

  • @EfficientRVer

    I've stopped in Alamo many times for gas and groceries where you did, when heading to Rachel or out to climb Tikaboo Peak to see into Area 51. Love the vibe of that area, and have also spoken with Pat while eating at the inn in Rachel. I assume she told you to be careful not to hit any cattle in the road, it's something she worries about. Hates losing customers because they ran into the danged black cattle lying down on the black road at night. Room 12, eh? If I ever stay in Alamo, I'll have to go for the "Wonderhussy slept here room" hahaha. But usually I sleep near the trailhead for Tikaboo when in the area. 20 miles on a dirt road that can be in rough shape some years, don't drive into a cattle gate on it!
    I forget which motel in Alamo which was where Adam West (Batman) always stayed at when passing through driving to or from his vacation home.
    Might be passing through Vegas/Alamo again around March. Will wait and see whether conditions are suitable for checking out the road you took to the A-12 memorial, and that general area. If not too snowy, I might hang out in the middle of nowhere around there for a while. Then swing by Rachel for a burger, maybe head up through Tonopah and Austin, etc. I've been through there before, but have since heard there are some cool things I missed, hahaha.

    The true name of the pistachio stuff you were eating is “Watergate salad”! It is made with Cool Whip mixed with pistachio pudding mix, add pineapple and marshmallows. Let it sit overnight. I’ve never heard that it was a Mormon dish. My family has always eaten that during the holidays, it is often requested. ♥️

    Love the" R Place" gas station food more than I should... as that specific place is nostalgic for being the first pit stop on many family trips to my FAVORITE TOWN EVER, ELY... taquitos from that gas station,are the same as every frozen and microwaved gourmet grub anywhere else.. but to us, it was MUCH MORE!! love it ! Your story about Valley of Fire State park, and the super incognito mission of trailing your photographer and fellow nude model with a particularly hard ass ranger... HAD ME LAUGHING MY ASS OFF... !!! I have to, HAVE TO know the description of said ranger... because I have worked there in the gift shop for an accumulated 11 years... being seasonal and all that..
    I have my suspicions, and I am dying to be right on who it was, and will be so stoked to hear from you !! I have many stories, and memories from back then! These days, all the "Law Enforcement Rangers" are rookies, to sayvthe least... I'd have never imagined wishing we had at LEAST one of the old school guys around the park... it just seems so chaotic with such young. inexperienced people being the ones to keep shit 💯... lol.ok, that went on and on.. if you would, could you maybe enlighten me, with a description of the dude who caught/busted your shoot?? Or let me guess , and see if im right... lol
