Planet of the Fox and the Valley of Fire

My boyfriend and I usually go away for Thanksgiving and bring with us that year's Halloween costumes to shoot.  This year we went to Las Vegas.  I usually like to get away for a day while we're there and explore some new place - the holiday crowds make communing with nature at Zion, Hoover Dam, and Grand Canyon a little like making dinner in a litter box, so I found a small park an hour north of the strip, the Valley of Fire State Park.  Assessment: Holy shit.  It's breathtaking.  It's otherworldly.  It's ancient.  It's a mere $10 to get in, which will get you half a shot of Jack at Aria.

Other stops along the way were the neon rocks at Seven Magic Mountains (where tourists begged for pictures with the Fox and insisted we must have a hashtag), and the blight of Baker, California, where a new Marvel superhero was born.
