Thursday, January 2, 1958

It rained 1.4 inches during nite.

We ate & packed & left for home at 9:50 A.M. stoped & bought a bag of oranges & 12 lbs of bananas for 1.

We started up Donnors Pass & they stopped us & said we'd need chains but before we got them out they came back & said we wouldn't need them. The roads were slushy but OK & sun was shineing.

We stoped in Reno & left kids in car & Ivard & I went in Horse Shoe Club & won $2.50 on slot machine & time we went to Nugget & Harolds Club we lost it & $2.20 of ours.

I drove from Lovelock home, over 300 miles. snow in the air but roads were dry. We got home at 10:30 & got to bed. Jerry & Kay were in bed.
