Desert Trip

Another birthday trip out to Death Valley and the Nevada desert. Old favorites included Bodie ghost town, Badwater and the open road. This time we added some clowns, aliens, crashed airplanes in front of a brothel, a wicked storm and detour-inducing flash floods. Living in the city with no car, it's sometimes a nice wake-up to be at the complete mercy of nature (which is not an earthquake).

No better place to go on birthday trip than Death Valley. Ghost towns and abandoned awesomeness, creepy motels, and wide open roads with no cops. A little heat never hurt anyone...?!?!

Finally!! A year and a half in the making. Some may have seen the extended directors-cut. Most likely didn't make it through the whole thing. This FINAL edit does the adventure much more justice. A crisp 11 minutes encapsulates my three day stomp around the ghost towns and deadly, crumbling mining camps of Death Valley.
