We spent the day yesterday at Burnside Lake, and Blue Lakes with our dirt bikes. Gregg planned to go fishing. He even bought a fishing license and worms at the Big 5 here in Minden. Unfortunately, when we got to the lake, we discovered we'd left the bag with the fishing gear in the garage. There were several other friendly folks up there, and Gregg borrowed a fishing pole from one of the guys. He had no luck catching fish, but we really enjoyed sitting quietly by the lake enjoying the fresh breeze and the beautiful scenery. It reminded me of when I was a kid and my dad would take me fishing. I was the only kid in the family who had the patience to sit quietly by the water, watching a line for any sign of movement.
After our fishing adventures, Gregg and I got on our bikes and headed out on a rough, rocky trail, hoping to make our way around the lake. Pretty soon the rocky trail gave way to a grassy meadow, nice and pleasant, right? Well it was, really, until the meadow turned to a bog. We wound up turning around and heading back, but it was still a great ride.
Today we're off to Wally's Hot Springs Spa and Resort, in Genoa, NV. It's a very old establishment, once a favorite of Mark Twain, who said the warm mineral soaks eased his rheumatism. I'm sure it'll do as much for us as it did for him.
