Night in California

After leaving Lake Tahoe we have been driving north by northwest mainly along US highway 89. Darkness came about half past six somewhere north of Truckee an old western town. We kept going aiming for Mineral, by the name and placing of it an old mining town but we could not find it. We realized that we had past it as we where getting close to Red Creek coming down the valley in pitch black darkness only seeing the lights along the valley and the neckless of cities lining it. At this point we had run out of discussion, gone through the songs on the MP3 player and the driver was getting tiered just as myself. So we decided to just put the car on a grassy meadow next to a fence and sleep it out. Good night America, where ever you are.
