Another email. Part II:
"I added more Desert Hot Springs photos:

The first image is extremely gross and disturbing. Do not click on 0A if these kinds of things upset you or if you are not feeling ready for this sort of thing at the moment. If you normally get upset easily, then don't click on it at all. It's very sad, and I cried when I saw it the first time and realized that the dog was not sleeping. It was probably heat exhaustion. After a few months I calmed down enough to take a picture.
The car-boat contraption in all of it's glory: 6A, 7A, 11A. Look very closely at 11A. Read the bumpersticker.
The muffler-vaccum-hose drinking fountain: 31A and 35A.
1532 has a very different feel. Scenic landscape. Postcard-like. Completely different take on the city. It's the image the city wants tourists to believe, but it is not the reality of what happens in D-Town."
