  1. I Was J/W If Anybody On GC Think That Deserts Are Cool (Figuratively) I Seen Mountains An Forests An Lagoons An Ocean Back In My Home Country Jamaica But We Dont Have Deserts There. I Did Get To See The Desert Years Ago When I Was Pregnant With My First Child Tho When My Boo Took Me To Arizona an Also The Grand Canyon. Sooo Pretty An Beautiful ISTG! I Hope To Go Back Sometimes. How Bout Yall? What Do You Think GC Fam? :)

  10. I got myself into this situation once where I was alone, on foot, at dusk, Outback. I could see the orange halo of the next town against the sky, so I just started hoofing it down the road. This was a pretty remote road and there was zero traffic. It was about twenty minutes before I noticed these two lights off in the distance. They were about the height of car headlights but weren't on the road - they were out in the bush. I kept eyes on them and kept walking. For well over an hour these lights bobbed alongside me off toward the horizon, sometimes seeming closer, sometimes further away; sometimes dimmer, sometimes brighter; sometimes white, sometimes more yellow. It was so inexplicable in the moment. I was probably a kilometre or so from town and they just disappeared.

    Weird shit happens in the desert.

    At any rate, the stars are off the chain. The only other place I've ever experienced a night sky like that was in the middle of the Indian Ocean.

  13. Thank You My Friend I always Felt That Way About Certain Places In The World. Like The Southwest Desert In America Or The Red Woods Forest Here Or The Blue Mountains Back in Jamaica. There Probably Spots Like That All Over The World TBH. The One You Were In The Outback was Probably One One Of Them Too.
