Polaroids From The Road...

No. #20170128_05 Amboy, Ca.

Made a quick run down South through Palm Springs, Joshua Tree National Park and the Mojave Desert back in January. I often forget just how empty most of California really is... and how "red" most of the small towns along the way really are. We stopped at this boarded up Motel, Roy's, in Amboy, which is somewhere between nowhere and not here. And then this RV full of German tourists rolls up, gets out, takes a bunch of pictures, and cuts out.

We almost... almost...  climbed to the top of Kelsoe Sand Dunes, but my ankle full of metal and our small dog were not cooperating. Plus we ran out of water. In the desert. Because we're city folk, apparently.

Another round of rain coming through... Feeling bad for all my students, they've been stuck inside making pictures in their cracker box studio apartments for most of the semester and I think it's starting to take it's toll...

Longing for warmer, sunnier, dryer days... winter seems to be dragging on forever this year. A few snaps from the street, in between torrential downpours...
