Fantastic views today. Even spotted this old dozer on some private property.

Check out this cool equipment. It's a giant earth death wheel and the mega earth chain saw.

Love your photos Jack. The desert is so beautiful after a bit of rain, not that it's not beautiful when dry as a bone, but something about the ruggedness with the greenery hits the soul different. Thanks for sharing.

Went out for a little desert cruise today.

Beautiful countryside.

Meanwhile, I’m looking for plans for an Arc. I’m sure this year will set records for rainfall. No snow, but rain, rain, and more rain.

Going to set up a dehumidifier in my 40. It has been so wet this year.

Since there's a heat wave hitting the valley, I headed north to the Bradshaw Mountains. Cruised up the easy way then took Senator Highway, bump dirt road, to check out the site where Bradshaw City used to be. Then out to an old abandoned mine.

This is all that's left of Bradshaw City....

Then to the mine site.....spotted this guy on the hike

What's left of an old shack....

Some other stuff around the mine site....

Then headed home.....

Cleaned up and headed to the Good Guys car show tomorrow morning.

Couple pix from today. My Dad and I hiding in the shade. Then looking out away from the bulk of the show and a couple other pix.

I have a soft spot for the Vega wagons. My parents had a 1974 wagon in a copper color. I have many memories of riding in it as a kid.

Took a cruise to the old Thule homestead which is near Lake Pleasant. It was alittle toasty, but we survived.

Camera was hot and wouldn't cooperate, so I missed some of the rougher sections.

This truck has been on the road 3 years as of this coming June. I just turned 5000 miles on the way home today.
I need to drive this more.

What camera are you using in that the heat was affecting its performance?

 

[JackA]

My phone camera. It was also about 100 degrees in the truck and the phone sitting on a black vinyl seat wasn't helping....lol

Ah yes, the old solar oven phone holder...

I've had to keep cameras in dc powered coolers before to keep them operational in the summer.

Always enjoy your content regardless, thanks.
