Mid morning we started our long trip to Reno.. We had two stops.. so it gave me lots of time to work on tehe plane.. I love my time in the air for getting stuff done. 

We got to Reno about 8 Pm .. nad headed to our good friends Sue and Jim’s . Jim,s out of town.. Sues offered her house as a placw to stay while we work on Fluffy in prep for trasmer to the playa on Friday>>

Sue and Jim are our good freind Dylan’s parents.. When Sam died, Dylan really took gabe under his wing.. Dydlan was ana amazing snowboarder.. he actually won the US open snowboard competition in Copper Co…. and we were there to see it ,. 

Dylan died in 2015 in a car accident and he bacame an organ donor .. just like Sam..

Sue and Jim moved out to reno a few years back and we’ve kept in close touch/

Today we made soem final prep for leaving tomorrow. one of the last things was making tags for things like our phones, bikes, bags, water bottles, cups, etc so they can find their way back to us on the playa if lost.

Oh.. Diane has chosen a playa name.. Maple !// how sweet is that ?!?!
