Well, I've just been told (not as a joke) that Barack Obama is a Muslim, and won't wear a flag pin nor put his hand on his heart. The same lady, nice as she is, also asked Emma if she speaks the same English in England as we were then speaking. We tried to explain, but naturally the urge to burst out laughing and/or run away was momentarily strong.
Winnemucca has about 7,200 people. We're staying in the Red Lion, which has a 24-h casino but it's real small.
We've decided not to go to Salt Lake, but instead to take 95 north from here to Boise. Trouble is, there is only 1 motel between Winnemucca and Boise, on the Nevada/Oregon border, and it's a 350-mile road or so. It's rainy etc so we are staying put here.
The road from Reno to Winnemucca is amazingly desolate desert surrounded by mountains. Next stop is famous potatoes.....
