Wandering around in a "living ghost town"...

That is what Alan called this place, RANDSTOWN, anyway. It looks like a ghost town but a lot of people (500) still live here. They closed the mines a few years ago but a lot of retirees have moved out here. We spoke to a young woman that ran the grocery store who said that she lived here most of her life. Made it sound like she might have left for college in 1990, but then came back. This is a cell phone snap that I sent immediately. For most of the day when we were deep in the desert there was zero cell phone signal available. How do people survive without cell phone coverage I found myself saying over and over...

There are many, many more and better quality photographs of my trip on display at my Flickr account.
