Just to confirm that I managed to get to Mesquite, Nevada on my fun loving day 27. After 420 miles, I made it to my 22$ motel room at the Virgin River Casino at 9:30 pm. Yippee! The room is basic but nice enough.

Is it true those $22 rooms at casinos in Nevavda are pre-equipped with debt? Ive heard you don’t have to incur debt by gambling because it’s already tacked on the bill. Or maybe it’s guilt, not debt. I’ve already got enough of that. I hope the ride is cooler and less painful. Sounds like the opposite of what we hit on the way to the Alaskan Highway in Alberta.
It’s hard to remember the last time I paid $22 for a hotel. But it’s not hard to remember the feeling that I was still overcharged.
