“The earthquake did not help,” I
thought, nerves still frayed from the 3am 6.0 magnitude event as heat lightning pulsed above the creepy little casino
town on the Nevada-Utah border. Below the sky, fields of flickering red
lights and the words "you're headed in the wrong direction” fading in and
out of reception on the radio.
Then, a savage, Biblical rain, momentary skid-outs in
standing water, and just flat-out not being able to see. At a dive motel
in the desolate eastern part of the state, a black moth on the shower curtain and June bugs in
the bed.
