It's a mystery!


Blogger was mysteriously down for the count yesterday, but that's okay cause I was out having funs last night anyway.  Here is another mystery- what makes holes (with doors!) in the sandstone of the California desert?  This is about halfway between Death Valley and Las Vegas, and there were similar domicile-looking holes in all of the other rock outcroppings within about a half mile radius.  It is not and never was (at least not on anything but a geologic time scale) a hospitable place to live.  There was no signage, nothing on our detailed "places of cultural and geographic interest"-oriented map, nothing at all for miles around.  When did people live here?  Why did people live here?  It's a mystery!
