kevin_standleeOur plan today was to go to Carson City to film the Santa Train running on the Nevada State Railroad Museum's track, then go up to Reno to do a lot of Christmas-based grocery shopping.
We got there just as the train was pulling past the switch that leads into the station. Lots of people were on board waving at us as Lisa set up her tripod and camera while I took a couple of snapshots.
The train pulled past the switch tender's shack (which I do not remember being here the last time we visited), and they reversed the switch to allow the train to back into the station, where it would discharge its passengers and load people for the next trip around the museum's loop of track.
Unfortunately, for TMI reasons, Lisa's shoulder started giving her way more trouble than expected and we needed to head for home right away. I felt bad that we were more than an hour from home, but I also didn't want to break any laws driving home.
So aside from a couple of still photos and a short bit of video, today was a bust, and Lisa's shoulder, which had been improving, is now back to paining her considerably. Unfortunately, while we did get the referral from Renown Health for physical therapy at the place that is just a couple of blocks from our house (I walk past it when walking to the Wigwam for breakfast), the first day they have open is January 17.
