Sunday, October 4, I met Katelyn and Kendall Christensen at the Mariott Hotel for a tour of Elko.
After Dr. Christensen finished meeting with the hospital, the Northeastern Nevada Regional Medical Center, the three checked out the black-box show at the Western Folklife Center, were captivated by the California Trail Interpretive Center before driving out of town to Thomas Canyon in the Ruby Mountains and lunch in Lamoille.
“The canyon” as locals call it is hard to beat this time of year. Driving into the granite canyon you’re met by spectacular red/orange aspen against deep green Mountain Mahogany– impressive beauty that most don’t expect in sagebrush country. The weather was warm, sky, sunny with scattered clouds, perfect fall day. They’ll be back.
