Darwin Dance Hall is one of the buildings yet to be vacated by Elvis.
This area was home to the Timbasha Shoshone (their website), displaced when Pres. Hoover hoovered up their land to create Death Valley National Monument. The Timbasha Shoshone tribe received recognition by the US Government in 1983. The Timbasha Shoshone Homeland Act was ratified in 2000: you can read about it here. Hats off to those who have fought the federal government (for decades!) to get (a fraction) what belongs to them.

There’s always an Elvis.

sorry to bother you. But she has gone nuts.
Great, evocative photos.
Well that dance hall looks like a riot to me. 😉
Beautiful photos. I think I’d like this place.
My kind of town. Must visit! It’s on my list, but perhaps not for summer.
I’m impressed to discover Darwin, Obama, Elvis and a dead lizard on the same block
