Milky Way, Murder, and High Rock Canyon | Black Rock Desert #3 - I can't say I was overjoyed when I heard @mrs.turbodb's alarm blaring away as she tried to find her phone in the mess of sheets to turn it off. It was 4:00am again, and just like the night before - a surprise, I know - the moon was still up.…
High Rock Canyon is awesome! Lots to see and do out around the playa.
We had a great time Keith, can't wait to get the story posted!
