This past weekend my parents came down for the long holiday weekend to see Noah and our course John and I. After living in Ridgecrest for almost 3 years we still have not visited Death Valley, so we finally did this weekend. Since it's as hot as hell there during the summer time (not sure how hot hell is but 130 plus degrees is dam hot) we decided to take a trip when the temperatures were mild. On our trip we were able to visit Scotty's Castle, who would have thought some millionaires from Chicago would have built a castle out in the middle of the desert. This guy must have liked the two extremes, bitter cold and hotter than hot temps. We also went to a Ghost Town about 30 miles outside of Death Valley, saw no ghost but did get to see a house made out of beer bottles by the town drunk. We didn't get to see everything in Death Valley, if you have ever traveled with a toddler you see what you can see and move on. I think we may go back to see a few more sites, but I'm sure that won't be until next winter.
