Day 2 - We left Lakeview, OR about 6:15 am and continued south. We were in Reno by 10:00. Just south of Reno is Carson City. Carson thought it was great a city was named after him and got a kick out of seeing all the signs with his name on them. I explained that we would be passing an old ghost town called Bodie as well. The next question that came from the back seat was "Where is Momma city at?" "You need a sign too mom!" When we got to Bodie, CA, of course we had to stop and examine the sign closer! Then we rolled into June Lake which is between Lee Vining and Mammoth Lakes. It is a beautiful turquoise blue glacier fed lake... a bit cold but the boys had fun. Finally out of the car and the long driving days are done! My good friend Patty met us at the lake, bringing buckets and shovels for the sand. We then headed back to Patty's house where we will stay for the next three nights. The kids were pretty worn out, so rather than doing an activity, they roamed the house while Patty and I caught up about the past 4 years since we've seen each other. Tomorrow promises to be a fun filled day... With hardly any driving! Bodie is happy that he won't have to sit still for such long expanses. Overall, it took us just over 16 hours of drive time and 950 miles to get here and the kids did GREAT!!!
