A Horse With No Name

See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up;
do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert
and streams in the wasteland.
~ Isaiah 43

Ringo's Original

I took them (and a bunch more) at a place called Salvation Mountain near The Salton Sea, just down the road from another crazy place called Slab City. Slab City is an encampment of perhaps 100 or more eccentric (and mostly friendly) squatters living in a "city" that they've built out of junk they've found in the desert. It's like Mad Max without the violence. When we were there the temperature was 107, and it often gets hotter than that.

It's a crazy place, Slab City.
