Blogger's slide show is having problems, which are preventing me from updating it... No matter which Picasa Web album I would link to, only photos of Sidney would appear...
I deleted and reinstalled the slide show, and according to Blogger you should be seeing photos of Nevada to the right, but nothing of the sort appears... so if you are interested in pretty or weird photos of Nevada, look at my Picasa Web album directly at Nevada Desert Views.
The wander about was good... Nevada is beautiful... but Nevada can be weird too.... there are many people and organizations which go to the desert to hide... many of which are shall we say, not normal... the reality of secret Airforce bases (Area 51 for example) adds to the feeling of a conspiracy... Some have fun with it... My favorite being "Alien Fresh Jerky" of Baker California, but tied in their mythology to Rachel Nevada, the closest town to Area 51) Lots of people go into the desert to shoot... guns. Guns not welcome in California... We may have had guns with us... You should when in Nevada... along with sharp knives and a case of grapefruit, and beer, lots of beer.
While the desert is big, and has fewer people (to see things?), in the desert, there is less to distract, and so, hiding activities is more difficult... with less to detract, details may trip them up... (them being the people hiding things from us, the conspiracy theorists...) I am not really a conspiracy theorist... I don't believe that area 51 was a alien landing place, instead, it is a place to test secret war planes in secret. On the other hand, I grew up in the 1960's and 70's.... a time when people talked of black helicopters (presumably operated by the CIA) and the like...
So.... On this trip, surrounded by people younger than me, I started to talk of black helicopters.... and hidden defense facilities... I may have made things up...
But the desert offers a rich palette and a clean canvas for those who want to create stories... This may explain why I like it so much. I like to make up stuff...
It started when a US Navy rescue helicopter flew over our camp site... several times... I studied geography at UC Berkeley... in the 1970's and as a result, I was pretty sure we were not near the ocean... Could it be that the Navy helicopter was really a black helicopter in disguise?
Off across desert hills to Wabuska... Here we found a modern industrial facility... AES Industries, for sale, no cars in the parking lot, none, not even one... but an American flag was flying... A web search (we have smart phones, we are smart, we are connected) suggest that AES makes things from metal, but the plant had equipment (visible from outside) to handle bulk shipments of dry material... likely plastic... (I am not an expert, but I believe plastic is not metal...) and the plant had a very over sized air conditioning system... much too large for the buildings visible... filling a fenced area in back, but disable, if you knew what to look at... I did... This raised questions... What did they make here (Likely molded plastic products, which are difficult to make in CA due to air rules, but why ruin a good story with facts) I suspect (or at least told others that I suspect) that this is t a hidden underground facility, either Defense Department, or worse, a base for black helicopters... I am going for black helicopters...
Then, while exploring the area on foot we found it... an eye wash station... in the desert... why, what would one need such a device for in the desert... yes, it is possible or even probable that you might get sand in your eye... but an eye wash station was not expected... There was a coffee pot, and a gas mask as well... Coffee for the control room crew? A gas mask for emergencies? (alternately, someone threw away a coffee pot and the gas mask is a dust mask used by those unloading railroad cars at the siding a few hundred feet away, but again, don't confuse the story with facts, and I still don't know why one would install a eye wash station in the desert)
So, having found the fabled base where black helicopters are based, we moved on, in search of the town of Schurz, and Indian fire works... It is said that the Indians, unconcerned with local laws sell things that go boom, not available in more conventional fireworks stands... Don't tell anyone, but the stories are true... we may (or may not) have acquired things that go bang, even under water, and a supply of bottle rockets... not the cheap Mexican stuff... the good Chinese stuff.
Back to camp... then off into the desert... BLM land, where guns are welcome... We had several, and thanks to us, the world is safe from plywood sheets, beer bottles, and wheel barrel tires... Back to camp (again) around the fire, cooking meat on the coals, drinking beer... dogs everywhere....
The next day were were off again... exploring old railroad right of way... until.... we found a new fence... across what had once been the tracks.... strong, locked gates... Fences and gates in the desert... signs... signs for Hodges Transportation Company... No Trespassing signs... We tried to find a way around them, back to the railroad right of way.... we followed dirt roads, we followed tracks which had never seen a dozier blade... marked only by the tires of off road vehicles... We eventually ran out of road... of course, we did a web search... for Hodges Transportation... and found that they are a testing lab... a testing lab in the desert.... customers include the Marines... They have an office in Northern Virginia, near Washington DC....We are back to black helicopters... It is all about the Government, about the Military Industrious complex... THEM...
Reports suggest that Hodges Transportation has a railroad... a short railroad with two hopper cars and a loco-mobile... Why??? How does this relate to black helicopters....?
I took photos, (now back to the Google/Blogger issues above) but I can't post them to the blog... I tried to change the slide show... only Sidney would appear, deleted the slide show... then re-posted the slide show app... It says it is here, but nothing shows, not even Sidney.... It may be part of the conspiracy... They know... They probably know I know... Google is part of it... they own Blogger... They have their own air force based on a NASA Base. I don't think they have black helicopters, but maybe...
It is late... I am wrapping my head in aluminum foil and going to bed....
Goodnight....
PS... It is all a fantasy... a delusion... get over it.... (or not)
PPS.... If you find the link to the photos doesn't work, try this.... (black helos... Google is involved...) http://tinyurl.com/Nevada-photos
