Introitus

Nevada is my home.  I was born here, and raised here, and da-gummit I'm gonna die here!  Over the years my love and appreciation for my native state has burgeoned, from a flickering understanding that this is my place in life, to a full-fledged realization that this is my place in life: my home, my soil, my birthright, and, as campy as it may sound, my soul.  I breathe Nevada air, I drink Nevada beer...

...and I drive Nevada highways a LOT.

As a part of my growing fondness for the Sagebrush State I began to take an interest in her geography; the mountains, the valleys, the woodlands, the sagebrush steppe.... And as a history nerd I developed a yearning to learn about my history, my roots...and those of my native land.  The two of course marry quite well, and subsequently I travel the highways and back roads of Nevada to see and experience the desert in all of its magnificence.

So here I am to chronicle my travels.  Between the mundane and the sublime, this is my story.
