Arriving in Fallon, NV

Currently we are in Fallon, NV – specifically Fallon Naval Air Station – and have plans to stay for about 2 weeks. Fallon is high desert (about 4,000’) and is warmer, dryer, and has less vegetation than we’ve had in the past month. It also doesn’t have much in the way of ‘tourist attractions’, though it is world-renowned for its Cantaloupes. That’s fine for us right now, as we need some time to just get some things done without being distracted by beautiful scenery and a plethora of things to do. Not that we’re complaining, not at all. It’s just that we have to remind ourselves sometimes that we’re not on vacation. This is our new lifestyle. Even though we’re on the road and living in an RV, we still have things that need to get done. So far we’re pleased with our location at Fallon NAS, which is home to the Naval Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN). As such, we pretty much get an air show every day. For a pilot like Chuck, that’s a great thing. The base has everything we need – all the amenities you would expect (commissary, exchange, gym, pool, laundry, theater, etc…) and a full hook-up site that is reasonably priced. The city of Fallon is nearby, and is a nice little town. Looks like we’ll be happy here for a little while.
