Today was cool and very windy. Uncomfortable to be outside. We got around rather slowly and then departed for the grocery store. We stopped by the old haunted cemetery to look it over. It was pretty scruffy.

After shopping we came back to the RV and had lunch. The Nevada Mining Museum was next on our plan for the day. We spent about two hours at the museum. They had lots of stuff outside but viewing it all was almost unbearable due to the wind. They had lots of mining equipment and history. They also has some WWII Air Force history. They used to use this area to train pilots and crew for flying the B24 "Flying Boxcar" bomber. The museum had a big pile of junk found at a crash site. There were also relics from the first experiments with "smart bombs" that were radio controlled or TV controlled. These early experiments were developed for WWII but were not very successful.
After the museum, we drove around town to take in the sites. Then we headed back to the trailer to relax. We found a nice fixer upper that you can buy and a "great horned pickup."
