Day 24 6/29/10 Las Vegas to Placerville

We took the long way home along 395. It is so beautiful especially when we got into California. When we got to Lee Vining the gas was $4.00 a gallon, needless to say we didn't stop there to fill up. Our new truck has perform perfectly and the gas miles was 22 miles per hour which isn't bad for a big truck. We stopped off at Topaz Lake for dinner. It was beautiful. I think most of the time I talk about restaurants, but sometimes that is the highlight of the day, especially going thru Arizona and Nevada. I am not a desert person and love my California. Arrived home at 10:00 and the house was so clean, thanks to Nicole and Jeff.

Our total trip was over 7,000 miles. Would I do it again, probably not but so glad I did. I have only 5 states in the US that I have not been to: Alaska, North Dakota, Michigan, Connecticut, and Louisiana. For future travel my idea is to fly to destination, rent a car and see the area more closely. Hope I have not bored everyone to death. Will post pictures soon.
