Bad Lands Southeastern North Dakota.
"Miles later and the heat is just ferocious. Sunglasses and goggles are not enough for this glare. You need a welder’s mask. .. The High Plains break up into washed-out and gullied hills. It is all bright whitish tan. Not a blade of grass anywhere. Just scattered weed stalks and rocks and sand. The black of the highway is a relief to look at so I stare down at it and study how the blur whizzes by underfoot. Beside it I see the left exhaust pipe has picked up a bluer color than it has ever had before. I spit on my glove tips, touch it and can see the sizzle. Not good. .. It’s important now to just live with this and not fight it mentally—mind control.“ Photos for
