General has a date.

Hi All, it's SVC this time, my first post so please be gentle.

After spending a successful day filming in Sacramento at the Capitol then an interview with Mike and Terry Huetter who collect car license plates, between them they create maps of the USA.  Mike has collected thousands since he was eleven.

In the morning I wanted to spend a little time with the Vietnam War Memorial in The gardens of the Capitol building, a very moving experience.

We then headed the General north east towards Nevada past the great lakes and decided to check out Reno.  HELL ON EARTH is how I’d describe Reno.

The town was full of desperation, people begging, drunk or on drugs or both...

Not feeling too comfortable, we headed east and found a room for the night at The Battle Mountain Inn in the town of the same name (except the Inn).

Today (Saturday) the General has a date with the Bonneville Salt Flats...
