The roar of the bikers’ engines continued into the night and we did not close until nine.  Hundreds of bikers, all terrain vehicles, cars and trucks brought people visiting from all parts of America and the world to visit the ghost town of Good springs and the Pioneer Saloon.

The owners son got married here this weekend, along with birthday and anniversary parties. The Pioneer even hosts star-gazing and ghost hunts.

As I write this, it is quiet and the sun is peaking over the hill.  We look forward to our last day here.  Tomorrow, off to Pahrump, Nevada for the gold, gem and mineral show next week.

We’re almost set up and have met some neat people.  Locals, lots of locals and they are wonderful, a biker from Henderson and a couple from Hawaii.  After a fine dinner in the Pioneer Saloon, we’re ready for bed.  The Friday night crowd will have to party without us!

We are looking forward to a good show.  The Pioneer Saloon is a family business, here in the not so ghost town of Goodsprings, here in Nevada. They truly have a passion for what the do and have made us feel welcome.

Seven Magic Mountains is the name of this piece of modern art installed just outside of Jean, Nevada.  The crystal hunting was a bust for crystals but we saw awesome scenery and this modern art. If you look closely, you can see Sherry standing at the base of one of the seven “mountains,” dwarfed by their massive size.   Made up of some 33 brightly colored boulders, it is quite a sight.

There are other sites, near ghost towns throughout the desert that have modern art installations. Enjoy!
