Phone conversation……

“Is it exit 205?” “No, that is the first off ramp to Lovelock. You want exit 112 …just past the prison.” “Take Coal Canyon road at exit 112, turn right and go twenty miles, then turn left onto the one track dirt road.”

“How will I know if I’m on the right road?” “Look for the branding iron on the fence post where the pavement ends…..just past the cattle guard……well, maybe two miles past the cattle guard.”

“Will there be phone service if get lost?” “Dude! youwont have phone service after you leave highway 80!. If you get lost, just sit still and watch for dust. Follow the dust, and they will tell you how to find the ranch”.
