Welcome back to my
WEDNESDAY WONDERS
From the edge of the desert,
successfully mapped.
(Of course, I still use maps.}
The place is Nevada,
where many folks head to Las Vegas.
But there is so much more waiting to be explored
even just 16 miles away from Las Vegas.
One of my favorite Nevada destinations.
Red Rock Canyon
Night
and day in the desert.
Words will never explain the total peace
that one feels anywhere in the desert.
You must experience for yourself.
You only need to live one sunset.
"The desert, when the sun comes up,
I couldn't tell you where
heaven stopped and the Earth began."

I'm a grateful person for having a grandfather
(that after long consideration) decided to make the desert his new home,
when my father was just twelve.
How about a bit of humor to our adventure?
Shall we send in the clowns?
Going north about three hundred miles from Las Vegas is
Tonopah, Nevada.

Best kept secret, this town is located between
Las Vegas and Reno. Must see this.
and it's not one bit creepy see here. Don't miss this.

Today I'll be happier than a bird with a french fry.
Cuz I'm one cool cat!
Look out squirrels!

I love the desert! It's been so long since I've been out west.
is that you looking all pretty in the desert?? i LOVE being outdoors and will always choose it first as a destination. i have never been to a desert, i'm not sure i would be able to handle the heat or the terrain now. but a drive through, a/c on, camera in hand - now that sounds like an adventure i would love!!!
What an amazing landscape! Love those desert shots at dusk!
I'd like to see the desert one day!
I love Canyon Lake and Superstition Mtn. in Arizona. Magical. Hugs.
I would LOVE to see the desert. Really love it.
It's been a long time since I was out west in Arizona, actually, where there's also desert. I love the lush green of Wisconsin, but there's something really special about the desert too. Such a different and amazing landscape.
I noticed you weren't wearing hiking boots.
wow your post made my day!
i found deserts Fascinating,they seem like a board where life has written lot but time erased all,i would love to wander and ponder upon lost
Hmm, still. Pretty creepy clown. :-)
I think the peace that you feel in your desert would be very similar to what we would experience in what we call in Australia the 'outback'.. Not sure about the clowns Karen 😀😀
