The next morning we woke up to filtered sunshine and packed up. It is much nicer to put away a dry tent than a wet one!
It took a while to load up those of us heading back to the casino as we had more bikes and gear even than people present as some of us were bringing home the gear of others who flew or took other methods home.
Fortunately, it was only an hour back to the casino and mild traffic. We had a bit of a set back because the battery was dead on Jerry's van, but he was prepared and had a battery charger with him. So, not much harm done.
Finally, we hit the road some time between 11 and 11:30! Jerry drove the first shift and I promptly feel asleep. How great it was to wake up an hour later (give or take) to bright sun.
In order to make as much time as possible and not get home too terribly late, we had a very quick fast food lunch, something I almost never eat.
We had an easy drive home in that there were no traffic or weather problems all the way. When we reached the town of Corning, I was ready for dinner. We agreed to just go to the Taco Bell next to the gas station we were at but it turned out that only the drive through was open and cars were backed up on to the road. I guess that's the place to be on Friday night at 7:30 pm.
In trying to turn around, we found a taco truck, which was a much better option anyway. Delicious dinner eaten while Jerry drove.
From there, it really wasn't very far to get home, thank goodness. I was happy to be back at my house by about 10:30 pm. What a week!
