Smith Valley on Hwy 208 along the river

Ron and I walked a total of 10 miles from Smith Valley town center to a rest stop on hwy 208 along the river. Stopped and got a juice at nice country store and sat out front for a while and rested then continued on to here: http://www.blm.gov/nv/st/en/fo/carson_city_field/blm_programs/recreation/wilson_canyon.html. While on our way about 3/4 the way to the end a nice lady in a blue sedan stopped on the highway and asked us where we were headed. She said she had seen us the day before walking and wondered where we were going. I told her across the united states!.. she seemed quite excited and was going to try to find the blog... It was nice that she stopped to say hello and check to see if she could assist us. I found one penny today.
