Late Friday night I decided to take a trip out to Joshua Tree National Park to see what happens there. It had been quite some time since I slept outside or experienced nature at its finest so I woke up early the next morning, gathered a few essentials and began the 3 hour drive out past Coachella Valley. 

I found this on my first hike of the day. I was headed to Mastodon Peak in order to get my metal/air guitar on at the top and came across this structure overlooking an oasis along the desert trail. I thought it was relatively interesting looking at it from below but never thought I’d come across this. This is the perfect addition to the shit structures left behind by early miners. I feel they should be disposed of but this is a good alternative.

   North Park hosts the Ray at Night Art Walk the second weekend of every month where many businesses, galleries and studios open their doors to the public to display work. The Salon often uses this opportunity to showcase their stylists, local quinine and art. This particular night was Disco night, big hair and vintage fashion was key.

I’m guessing this is in Kansas. If that’s the case, we had been on the road since about 11am that day after waking up in my Civic under a comforter in a truckstop parking lot. We parked at 5am expecting to sleep for only a few hours before we hit the road again to catch up on time we lost but apparently our bodies had other plans. We woke up around lunch time to families and truckers walking past our car on a freezing, overcast afternoon. My comforter kept us warm, I think it was about 5 degrees that day.
