Thank You for taking these pictures of an area I have wondered about for a long time.
I feel like jumping in my car with my 20D and driving there to take some great shots like yours some day.

Very nice additions to the Desert gallery Paul. Wish I was there :)

Paul!
These are great pictures. Interesting and they tell the story. I love the sign post and the bottle trees, among others. I may ask you for a print after I view them all. They are decorative to boot. When are the new ones going up? I hope you get this message. I do not have your e-mail address.
