Purple Roadtrippers

Our cross country trip ended sooner than we expected. We felt it best to get Lana home to see her primary care doctor and get healthy under his care. There was more to the trip that did not get posted and I will not post at this time because we are now preparing for a trip to Israel. As of this posting we have 8 days until takeoff! We are so excited! Stay tuned!


 Day Four - Monday, Sep 13, 2021


An unexpected detour in our journey where an earlier diagnosed medical condition caused Lana some discomfort sending us to the nearest hospital 70 miles from Beatty in Pahrump, NV.



Day Five - Tuesday, Sep 14, 2021


A Beatty Extension and a Ghost town

Our hospital detour culminated in a third night in the El Portal…our desert oasis; and a visit to Rhyolite, a once booming town with a population of 800 back in the 1900s now a ghost town in ruins. 


We ended the day with the sun setting over the desert.


Our extended stay afforded us the opportunity to visit the Beatty Museum
