Drove 697 miles today to Battle Mountain, Nevada.  Spending the night here in the Flying J.



On the way went past the Olympic ski jump.  It is east of Salt Lake City and very visible from I-80.



Stopped at the rest area in front of the Bonneville Salt Flats.  That is about 120 miles west of Salt Lake City on I-80.

Delivered first thing this morning then went just down the road and had my windshield replaced.  Had a huge crack in the middle of it and 3 rock chips.



After my windshield was done I went to Johnson Creek to a truck stop that's about half way between Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  There is a restaurant there that is pretty good.  Their baked goods are fantastic!!  Took a few photos of some of the stuff they bake. I'll definitely be back here!!
