I decided to get up a little early and catch some of the sights along the river between Reno and Fernley. I drive by all the time but never have the time to stop.

The Mars pet food plant. The birds must have liked the heat from the stack, they were constantly circling.

Sunday morning traffic was light on I-80

I tried to get some of the steam with the Sun behind it, but all the roads were private and locked.:cry
Looking for adventure in all the wrong places!

    Nice eco shots. Arene't you glad you went back? Those birds riding the thermals are pretty funny. Anything for a free lift. I bet if it wasn't so bio-hazardess, and full of carbon waste, you would see gaggles of hang gliders doing the same thing!
