An old Japanese legend said that anyone who folds a thousand paper cranes
so pleases the gods, the folder is granted a wish...
it begins, with just one.
Rhyolite is a ghost town in Nye County, in the U.S. state of Nevada. It is in the Bullfrog Hills, about 120 miles northwest of Las Vegas, near the eastern boundary of Death Valley National Park
40,000 White Flowers on the National Mall honor gun violence victims who lost their lives last year, organized by Gabrielle Giffords' nonprofit.
How many more lives must be lost? How many lives will be lost unnecessarily, gunned down by madmen, police, or countless other unnecessary situations? #guncontrol
Powered by a pair of Union Pacific EMD SD90MAC-H 6,000 hp locomotives, a long southbound UP freight pounds upgrade out of Walong, California, climbing Tehachapi Pass on March 28, 2001. This area is a bit different now, as a second track goes through a cut just to the right of the Tunnel, essentially making it double track from the east end of Marcel to the west end of Walong.
Amargosa Opera House and Hotel is a historic building and cultural center in Death Valley Junction, in eastern Inyo County, California near Death Valley National Park.
Resident artist Marta Becket staged dance and mime shows from the late 1960s until her final show in February 2012. The Death Valley Junction Historic District is on the National Register of Historic Places and is owned by the nonprofit established by Becket for the preservation of the property.
The theater was part of a company town designed by architect Alexander Hamilton McCulloch and constructed in 1923–25 by the Pacific Coast Borax Company. The U-shaped complex of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture-style adobe buildings included company offices, employees' headquarters, a dormitory, and a 23-room hotel with a dining room, lobby, and store. At the northeast end of the complex was a recreation hall used as a community center for dances, church services, movies, funerals, and town meetings
The Monadnock Building

BUILT 1891-1893... it is the tallest load-bearing brick building ever constructed.
Looning north just before sunset, on an exceptionally clear afternoon. Beyond the large white condo (a vacation rental) is San Simeon Point, then Point Piedras Blancas, and in the far distance the Santa Lucia range meets the sea, where Big Sur 'officially' begins.
In the foreground are Ice Age unconsolidated sands, from great dunes that spread inland during the low sea-stand when much of the ocean water was frozen into ice-sheets a mile or more thick, over Canada, New England, and much of northern Eurasia. Dry land extended to the Farallones off future San Francisco! The last Great Warming ended only about 9,000 years ago. Of course, the Earth's climate continues to warm, as does a lively debate over how much of the warming is due to humans, and how much is natural. You won't read much about the actual scientific debate, sadly, in the popular press, as this has become an item of faith among True Believers. But, geologically speaking, we're at risk of a return of the Ice -- and human CO2 emissions may help to keep that at bay. A respectable (but controversial) hypothesis.
Cuesta mucho llegar, pero merece la pena. El camino que llega a la estación de Navidiello es casi imposible incluso a pie. Pero el entorno en el que se ubica esta estación es impresionante. Además, su curiosa disposición de vías la hace aún más atractiva. Veánse si no los tres túneles para cada una de las tres vías al fondo, tras el talgo...
