We are so excited that our time here in Reno is almost over!!! We have 12 more days here to be exact!! Reno has not been our most favorite place, but I do have to say that we have fallen in love with Lake Tahoe. Funny thing Reno has been our least favorite and Lake Tahoe has been our most favorite! We have taken advantage of been so near Lake Tahoe and have gotten away as much as possible. I think since the last time I have written we have managed to go up to the Lake a couple of more times! We have also visited Virginia City. VC is an old western/mining town up in the mountains. It was a fun experience...we did a trolley tour of the "city", a train ride, a tour of an old mine, and old school, the opra house and a museum of "the way it was". It was a nice day trip activity! We have about exhausted all of the activities to do in Reno. This week the state fair is in town so we are going to go to that and I am hoping that they have heard of fried candy bars out here in Nevada!!!
At our swim spot in Lake Tahoe
I also got some great news last week...I got a job in Hartford, Connecticut!!! So we will be jetting across the US in 4 days. We will be on the road for about 11-12 hours a day to get to CT by September 8th. We will be there until the first of December!!! I am so excited that we are going to be on the east coast again! So we will be just a short cheap plane ride away so come visit! This will be my last travel assignment...we have decided to settle down and be "normal". We are going to take the month of December off and hopefully become staff in the beginning of January. Patrick has also decided that he wants to go back to nursing school so hopefully he will be able to start that adventure in January!
Rafting down the Truckee River in Lake Tahoe
I think that is about wraps up our lives for the past month or so. So until next time...
