I want to share some photos from a very special trip.
Last weekend—for our anniversary—I took my girlfriend to the Black Rock Desert (where else would you take a Nevada girl?). We went hot springing, bought pottery at Planet X, ate dinner at Bruno's, and incredibly, visited the famous Fly Ranch and its geyser.
Thank you to the folks at
Black Rock Mud, Shelly Egbert and her wonderful family for an incredible experience.

The geyser was created in the 1960s after drilling a geothermal test well. |
|
According to reports, the well was left uncapped. |
|
The water was allowed to shoot from the well... |
|
...and calcium carbonate deposits began to form. |
|
The ranch and geyser are on private land in Hualapai Valley. |

wind is blowing;
wet, it's raining;
