RICK: Today, the Carefree Highway brings us back to The Concert Hall, that sits right between the Montego Bay and Peppermill Casinos on the Nevada side of the border town of Wendover on Interstate 80. Time to get back to work!
Arrived here in Wendover last night and found out that the annual Speedweek on the Bonneville Salt Flats had been completely rained out. Now they're trying to prepare the surface for a combined World Finals and Speedweek event in a couple of weeks, but it rained hard here last night and there's still a lot of water on the salt! It's not looking too good. What's needed is a hot dry spell here right now.
...and where else on this planet could you pull in to a gas station, go in to pay, and see stuff like this on the wall...Wendover, Utah, gotta love it!
From the Load Out last nite in Wendover to the Paramount was a real long haul for our crew, but they're hard at it, getting the gear all set up for ton[te's concert here in Denver!
