On their way to see Garth Brooks, Abby and Colt decide to pull off the highway since traffic isn't moving due to the storm. They eat at "Duke's Smokehouse", the exterior shot and digitally edited at Nicely's Restaurant, US-395, Lee Vining, CA. It is located across the street from Mono Lake, just north of the Tioga Pass... the mountain pass of the Sierra Nevada mountains that serves as the eastern entrance to Yosemite National Park.
