In the Beginning

This is the room where Gram Parsons died at the Joshua Tree Inn. R.I.P.

If you look closely at the photo above (right) that line in the middle is the San Andreas Fault.

We hit up Joshua Tree Park on the way to LA Friday. Click on the pics for all their glory.


"We've all got wheels to take ourselves away

We've got the telephones to say what we can't say

We all got higher and higher every day

Come on wheels take this boy away

We're not afraid to ride

We're not afraid to die come on wheels take me home today

So come on wheels take this boy away



And when I feel my time is almost up

And destiny is in my right hand

I'll turn to him who made my faith so strong

Come on wheels make this boy a man

We're not afraid to ride

We're not afraid to die come on wheels take me home today

So come on wheels take this boy away

Come on wheels take this boy away"

Remember on 3's Company when Chrissy would laugh so hard she would snort? I just snorted! There is nothing worse than accidentally stumbling across someone's makeshift bathroom while you're out camping!

But really, Cap Rock is where Gram's 'cremation' took place. People have set up little shrines and grafiti and all that. We stopped there for lunch and found the spot on accident.
