Mojave Desert Drifter

I noticed this drifter for four days. I first saw him on the on-ramp leading onto SR-14 at Cal City. The 2nd day I saw him sitting in the desert brush near Cantil along SR-14. The 3rd day I saw him walking along SR-14 near Red Rock State Park. The 4th day I saw him walking along SR-14 near Robber's Roost and that is the last time I saw him. I have no idea if he kept going along SR-14 until he hit the 395 or if he turned up the 178 towards Lake Isabella or perhaps he went up the 178 into Ridgecrest? I hope he has enough food and water for his journey and wish him the best of luck in his travels! I shot this at the spur of the moment through my car window.

Memorial Cross For Father Crowley Desert Padre

I have driven by this cross at the side of SR-14 countless times and never knew the significance of it until a few weeks ago. www.owensvalleyhistory.com/father_crowley/page59.html
