Hello from Reno! I'm having some technical error and can't seem to upload my map image from NYC? Weird. Well, in any case, it looks like it’s road-trip time! Virginia City, here I come!
Did you know Virginia City was once a booming town in the 1800s, with silver and gold all around? As part of the Comstock Lode, men arrived poor and left with millions. Some famous folks who once called Virginia City home were John Mackay, of whom UNR is a beneficiary (ever heard of Mackay School of Mines?) and even Mark Twain.
Anyways, the note on the map reads “Blood + Bucket = Good Time.” Well, if that’s not a gruesome omen, I don’t know what is. Wish me luck!
