Day Trip to Wellington, NV
April, 2009

On Saturday April 11^th, 2009 some members of The Reno Jaguar Club joined with The Reno British Car Club for a scenic drive through the countryside.  Even though Friday night was rainy, Saturday dawned bright and clear with temperatures near 65 degrees by days’ end.  The Reno Group met in S. Reno and caravanned to S. Carson and met up with another group from the valley.  The group totaled about fifteen cars altogether including members from both clubs.  We headed south through Genoa and ended up in Wellington, NV for some awesome Basque food at The Historic Heyday Inn.  What a quaint little place to gather.  Our food included Basque Chicken, Tri-Tip Steak , Salad, French Fries, drinks, and Cake and Ice Cream for dessert!   After lunch the Reno British Club held their monthly meeting and those of us from the Reno Jaguar Club introduced ourselves.  Everyone was on their own after lunch and some came home the same route as they arrived, some took the branch to Yerington, others came home through the Walker River Canyon and Bridgeport.  It was a great drive and we had some great fun, food, and camaraderie!  Those from the Jag club included Ron and Julie Pizer, Mike Glass joined in Carson by Mike Johnson, Tony Mitchell, Rex and Dixie Black also met us in Carson as did Peter and Patti Smith.  A great showing from the club!
