exhaustedWe decided that hanging around longer was a Bad Idea and hot-footed it (ahem) out of the area.
In Grass Valley, we stopped and had lunch at Cousin Jack Pasties, where I've wanted to try their Cornish pasties ever since I first noticed they were there during a previous overnight stay in Grass Valley. We each had a nice beef pasty and a bowl of seafood chowder that hit the spot. Lisa said there was too much pepper in the patsty to suit her, but I liked mine.
Because we got to bed after 2 AM last night and therefore were running on very little sleep, the rest of the drive home was a real challenge. Lisa spelled me from Truckee to Verdi when I reached a point where I couldn't keep my eyes open, and then I drove the rest of the way home. We'll leave the unpacking of the gear until tomorrow. Once the trailer has cooled down (that being the only place there is air conditioning), we're likely to turn in early.
