After I left the Elko Nevada Mine Expo last Thursday afternoon I headed SE to go back home on highway 50. There's a road that cuts through the Ruby mountains. It's the rainy season and it sure does turn this mostly arid landscape green. Hardly a soul was on this road and I took a little time to stop and enjoy the smells and cool breeze of this country. I got as far as Ely, Nevada for the night and stayed at the old Hotel Nevada, which when build in 1929 was the tallest building in all of Nevada at the time. They even put me on the top floor overlooking downtown Ely. The place is rather nice and fixed up from the last time I stayed there which was maybe 15 years ago now.
