One would think that by attending a residency in the hottest place in North America, one could avoid the kind of weather that our friends are experiencing back home. But alas, our outpost in Beatty is 3500 feet above Death Valley and this morning we woke up to falling snow. I've been thinking of this place as a sort of polar opposite to the Midwest, but today it doesn't seem quite so different. We are packing up to leave this morning, looking forward to a scenic drive back to LA (this time not in the dark). Perhaps this bit of snow will help ease the shock of returning to a Wisconsin that is deep into winter.
