Thou Shalt Offer Salt

A couple of weeks ago Matthew had to make a few work-related deliveries in Indio and the Imperial Valley. What lies between those two points on a map? Only the place I've wanted to go to more than anywhere else in the world: the Salton Sea! We even took the wrong road that took us through Bombay Beach, which only made things better. Unfortunately we were on a deadline, so we didn't get the time to fully explore all of the beauty and ruin.

I want to hang this photo in a prominent place in my home. Is that weird?

For the full story on the accident that is the Salton Sea I recommend the movie "Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea". A word of caution, there's some old man nudity.
