I don't see the Mall--Where's the Mall, Boo????

We are home for tonight at least. Boo was having a difficult time with such a big diet change, so we decided to come home a day early. Bryon and I plan to do a day trip tomorrow. Back to the Mall- we went to Ely Nevada on purpose. However, when we got there the trains were only running weekends. It is a rather small town, with little to offer in the way of shopping. We are looking at the map, Eureka is only 83 miles away AND it's printed in much BIGGER letters. We decide that it is probably a MUCH larger town. We head out, with visions of all the cool shopping we are going to do. We don't even mind the 1000 foot climb. I kid you not, if you were to blink, you'd miss Eureka. We are diving along happily when we realize that we just PASSED Eureka. 'I didn't see the mall-Where's the mall Boo??' Yes indeed, that IS what I said. Luckily they did have a 'Best Western' [not a very good one, mind you] so we ended up staying the night. Only two places to eat so we ate cold cereal and veggies in our room. The motel DID have a spa pool that Boo made use of. When we pulled out at 8:45a.m. this morning the sidewalks were still pulled up. Do I reccomend a trip to Eureka? Not hardly!!! We did a lot of driving, Miss Eva was such a lady, and had a lovely visit with Brandon, so 'all in all' it was a pretty good time. Love to all!!!!
