Motel didn't have a restaurant... we called a couple of places in town.
It's possible we should not have told anyone that the sherrif gave us
the bird and fish :-) I said kid -- but actually a young man who took
the bounty home, I believe...
I should read my journal notesagainto see if I left out any salient
points :-)

That's a good story. What travelling is all about. I wonder if the kid got the
motel chef to cook it for the staff...

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.
