Winnemucca Hotel

We stopped at this strange saloon in Winnemucca, where the sign said they served food from noon. Inside it was smoky, and the bleary eyed barman was talking with the only customer under a large moosehead, to the sound of country on the local radio. He waved us in to the
cavernous dining room at the back, past the collection of wall calendars. For a place where time seems to have stood still for quite a while, the calendars were all actually showing this month of this year, perhaps as a quaint reminder of it's existence.

What This Is All About

This is where I will post pictures and thoughts as I drive across the country with my son, planting apple cores as we eat the apples. If you want to see the locations of the pictures (including apple planting sites) you will be able to follow us by clicking on this picture:
