My research determined we didn't go there either... also, missed by a
hair... I confused it with the near ghost town of Darwin.. which we
passed through
on the way from Lone Pine -to- Death Valley in 1984and where I did do a
bit of shooting of tumbledown old west structures. We did go to Rhyolite
though.
Lone Pine was memorable .for things not related to scenic grandure. By
chance , while Richard napped and I was driving around the Alabama hills
, I encountered a couple of women on horse back, one of whom, it turned
out, was and avid Scrabble player (maybe I was wearing a Scrabble T
shirt) ... she also wanted some photos of her farm animals.. so we
played Scrabble abit and I tooksome photos. She was a designer of
greeting cards ... who happened to be married to the town's sherrif,
they gave us a present of a wonderful trout and quail from their freezer
- we figured we could get a restaurant to prepare for us, but no luck,
so we made a present of the fowl to the kid who worked at the motel at
the desk.
I got paid for photos when I sent them from home and I also got a nice
drawing.

I missed it by a whisker on my roadtrip in 2013. I came down hwy 394
from Bishop and had made a stopover at White Mountain and the
Bristlecone pines. I noticed the sign, but decided I rather wanted to
spend some extra time in Death Valley.
