I burned a man near Reno, just to watch him die.

This one came out pretty clear even with the steam. I am not sure how hot the water is but I was told someone’s dog jumped in and the owner tried to jump in and save him and died. Not very smart. I know my shoes were getting warm just standing in about an inch of water. Geysers are located by Gerlach, Nv.

The geyser was created accidentally in 1964, after a geothermal power company drilled a test well at the site. While the groundwater in the region turned out not to be sufficiently hot to be tapped for geothermal power, it did have a temperature of more than 200 degrees.

This is a weird one. If you look at it full size the bolt on the left appears to be made up of several bolts all following the same path.

We have a “jack” who always seems to be looking for a “jenny” in our neighborhood and while many dislike the “eee-yaw’s” I think it’s great. The burro’s call led the miners to nickname them “Washoe Canaries” for the Washoe Mining District in Western Nevada.
