A neat old building I passed on a recent road trip through some awesome Arizona desert. I’m guessing this used to be a service station/trading post type of establishment.

Spent a couple hours wandering about the Anaconda Gold Mine out at Joshua Tree National Park. Shrunk it down into a ten-minute YouTube video 😎 https://youtu.be/JqXHvQlNK2k . . . . #joshuatreenationalpark #jtnp #exploratography #goldmine #anacondagol
