Confess I had to look at the map to see where Austin was, Hwy.50, "The Loneliest Highway". One of the few NV. roads I haven't hit yet as I like my blackjack tables a little nearer one another. Traveling around the state has got to enhance the hobby for us collectors. Amazing what great chips came from such unlikely places sometimes. Just keep your gas tank topped off and remember that Nevada is open range country if you do any night driving (OMG, cows in the road!).

I have been to Gerlach however and slept in my truck down the road in Empire. A sign at the edge of town stated that firing of guns was not permitted in Empire. It seemed to me though, that you could stand just over the line and have a reasonable expectation of plugging your opponent on the other side of town without too much difficulty. A Nevada kind of thing.
