Roadtrip 2022 Fall: Richland - Boise - Ely - Kanab - Sedona - Joshua Tree - Paso Robles - Calistoga - Brookings - Cannon Beach


Day 43 - Our Ranch - Pioneertown

I will start this day with an apology. There are a lot of photos - but I think of it as 2 separate "shoot entities". It's all because our Joshua Tree digs have such a phenomenal seting and such ecclectic and crazy outdoor decor - so typical of everything that is "Yucca valley". I just had to explore how it all came together.

Metal flower sculpture with the requisite J Tree trailers in the distance.

Art in every corner - yes this is outdoors.

Where everything comes together.

Even little owls pop up in unexpected corners.

More requisite trailers - this one is the "on site van". No guests don't stay in it!

Not a single spot is untouched.

Buddah's bad hair day.

Next location - Pioneertown - where we move on to more crazy stuff.

Not an artichoke.

Even in good ol' Pioneertown, Wild West: The Rules and Regulations.

Honkytonk.

The Barbershop, found as always, in the Saloon.

It's a bath house tree house.

All liveried up.

Chooks and turks - all living together.

A Grand Tradition Revived: Foto Pilic. I count 5.

My favourite classroom. It is getting a little rusty, but it's still here.

Now here's a great spot for the evening firepit.

The morning coffee setup.

A remnant of the ol' Pioneertown Stargate Project, designed to bring in extraterrestrials tourists. It is not clear if the system ever worked.

hmmm - votexes just have to be here too......

It's my ranch - I just bought it.

The porch comes with it - my new command post.

It is thought Hesiod got the idea for The Hydra on a visit to Pioneertown in 1947.

Spot the real vs the fictional.

Who mimics who?

Mane (yup: Mane) Street.

All set for Christmas.
