Caleb called to tell us that he was getting on an earlier flight from San Francisco. We had started by going south through the more built-up portion so unfortunately instead of doing the north part of the lake we got back on major highways and got to Reno with time to spare for the flight.After picking up Caleb we met up with Danielle. Dan and I were going to do that and then get Caleb but it worked really well that he got an earlier flight because he got to see her as well. We met her at her apartment which she shares with her boyfriend and 2 cats Pete and Al. The apartment was pretty cute and not as tiny as she insisted. I’m pretty sure it’s bigger than the one we had in Malden.
We talked about life and Coachella that she had gone to (the lineup looked amazing, it would have been pretty awesome to have been there). She had a few hours before she had to be at work and we had some time before we should leave for Herlong so we went to the nearby park and did a hike. In Reno (as in many other places) they had a letter on the hillside. In this case it was an N for Nevada. We hiked up to the N and sat down on its purple rocks for a little bit. The last few hundred feet I had to take a rest. You
may find this surprising but sitting in the car for hours on end doesn’t seem to have helped my getting in shape effort. Plus the altitude… so that was nice, and there was a great view of Reno from up there. The beginning of the hike was through the park where we saw a lot of dogs. Someday……Afterwards we drove Danielle back to her house, said our farewells and drove up to Herlong.
