Well, we spent about ten and a half hours on the road today, and as it turns out the one thing we forgot to pack was our extra set of lungs. The California wild fires rode shotgun during pretty much our entire journey today, and it is only now, in Winnemucca, Nevada that we are actually starting to see something resembling normal sky colors.

Overall, I’d say it was a pretty good first day, and tomorrow looks to be equally long, however there will be an added bonus in that tomorrow’s trip won’t both begin and end in Humboldt County.
