My Visit to Rachel, Nevada

In April 2004, I had the chance to travel the Extraterrestrial Highway (State Highway 375) in Nevada.  This highway runs along the eastern edge of Area 51.  Rachel is the only town for 60 miles in any direction.  Being low on fuel in both tanks, I stopped in at the Little A'le Inn for a burger and gas.  Fortunately, Dave, the owner of the only gas pump in town was there too.  He was kind enough to reopen the gas station so I could fuel the bike.  At the Inn, I met the nicest people anywhere on the trip.  Connie the bartender and Jared a cattle rancher.  By the way, this is open range country and there are few fences.  So, the cattle are free to roam just about anywhere.  Even in the middle of the highway!!  These cattle were also black and very difficult to see at night.

Yes, I even saw strange lights that I could not explain, really!  Around midnight, I stopped in the middle of the highway 25 miles out of Rachel.  This pair of red lights came over the mountain and...  Ask me about it sometime.  It spooked me into hopping back on the bike to get out of there.

I get visitors from all over the world and I like to hear comments about extraterrestrials.  You can see that one of my favorite radio programs is Coast to Coast AM.  If you found this site interesting or a pleasant diversion, please drop me a note from my Feedback Page.
