It was about 80 miles from Salt Lake City that Ronnie got signal and give Ted Bell a call. He didn’t answer but Mrs Bell did and informed us that Ted had gone to southern Utal on a business trip. Well, that changes things. It was at this point that Ronnie and I decide to try to make it all the way to Silver Springs, NV. We figure that would put us pretty close to a 1000 miles in a day. We drive,…and drive,…and get gas,…and drive,…and drive. We finally get to Jackpot, NV and stop to eat at the casino.
