Friday 3 p.m. We arrived in Reno where they told me we would stay the night so I could sleep on a real bed. However when we got there I heard them rambling nonsence about how it looked like, "the toothless white trash cousin to Vegas" and they wanted to get out a.s.a.p. as it was depressing. We drove in circles looking for a wireless internet connection when they found a cute area known as the Arts District. After another hour of me being in the car they came back feeling much better because they sat in this hip coffee house "Java Jungle” and were served Ericka's favorite beer (Fat Tire) that she hadn't had since she lived in Colorado. I geuss LeRoy chatted up the bartender, the ex-military guy that lived upstairs, and the retired couple from Wisconsin. They Skyped Tracy and Arek, then when they got back to the car they said we were headed to stay in Lake Tahoe. Again this was another place I was supposedly going to love. I could get out of the damn car and run around the lake and find other dogs to smell their butts.(I HATE the water!) Then I heard them call Elana and she said Tahoe was out of the way to get to her house. A bit of a fight broke out as Ericka was acting as bitchy as I was feeling. They had only about 4 hours sleep in 2 days and she couldn't bear to go on without a bed and a bath. She also didn't want to meet LeRoy's oldest friend stinky and cranky. LeRoy won the fight as usual and we all treaded on to Mammoth, CA.
