It is people like you and us and the couple we helped that will always make me opt for the stop vs. non-stop; someday we may be the ones frantically waving our arms. . .

He had a gold property we were going out to map. But we drove over a sharp rock that pierced our gas tank - and it began a slow drip - on Memorial Day weekend. We made it back to Winnemucca where the only help we were offered was chewing gum. We chewed up a storm and decided we better drive home - 8 hours away to Boulder, CO - and the gum held. I can totally empathize with those people you helped out!!!Nice of you to lend a hand.HikeBikeTravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09912310608396833772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-56118622891339083362012-11-28T06:36:39.835-08:002012-11-28T06:36:39.835-08:00You've probably been so busy keeping the two m...You've probably been so busy keeping the two munchkins entertained that you didn't have time to soak up the beauty. . .give it a few years!Jackie and Joel Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14074129927177165084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-69296271247293800852012-11-27T11:53:01.714-08:002012-11-27T11:53:01.714-08:00I would have stopped, especially with so little tr... I would have stopped, especially with so little traffic on the road. I've needed help a few times myself.<br /> We have logged many a mile in Nevada & Oregon high desert. I can't say it's captured me. But I'm glad someone sees the beauty in it. I am the mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834905942380210360noreply@blogger.com
