| Ronda and I played dualing cameras through a plastic port hole |
| A good day to travel. Ross Waugh, David's brother went along with us on his Nomad. He's visiting from Calgary, Alberta |
| We brought our KIA down her so we could haul company around. We plan to sell it soon, really don't need it any more. |
| Ronda made it to the top. That's the start of "Slab City" in the background |
| The mountain has one person that is sort of a watchman now. |
| Another of the inside rooms. The trophy's are mostly for things Leanord was recognized for during the Tomato Days Festivals in past years, and other awards |
| Leonard made no bones about his Spiritual Beliefs |
| The other side of the plastic porthole. Ronda with her Tablet/camera |
| Preston, Karen, Ronda and Pat inside the mountain |
| Ross and Sherm |
| Ross taking pictures with his phone |
| Near the Stage. Every Saturday is "open mic" night, as well as other activities. It's still a busy place in Slab City |
| A restroom, shower, and workshop |
| Abandoned tool box. Anything of value is gone |
| This car has been out here for a long time |
| Transportation to town |
| A Desert Rat with his ponies. He looked to be in his 60's. He'd been on his cell phone a long time so I didn't get a chance to see if he's let us take a better picture of him |
| Waiting for the food. Ross was the first to be served |
| My low carb lunch |
| Learned some from this plaque |
| Painting from inside the Mexican Cafe where we had lunch |
| New this year, this is a nice little place to eat |
