Travelling To Overton

My first project on this conservation trip was based at Overton, a small town 60 miles or so away from Las Vegas. Sadly that means it's about 480 miles away from Reno so the trip was started with a fun 9 hour car journey... This journey was not made better by patchy radio coverage for half of it. For some reason the Jesus channels always seemed to get through though; presumably this is because they have the power of Christ behind them.

We did get to travel along the Extraterrestrial Highway near Area 51 during the trip. However that isn't as much fun as it sounds; it basically amounts to a few sign posts, a bar with an alien based pun for a name and no UFOs whatsoever. Despite being one of the most desolate roads in America it has more UFO sightings than any other road in the country. I'm gonna put this one down to boredom playing tricks on the mind...
