We drive through the valley of death
In air conditioned cars
Stopping for snapshots
And a pull from our soft drinks
In air conditioned cars
Stopping for snapshots
And a pull from our soft drinks
As if it were
A theme park ride
And it is
Unless we leave the highway
Then, Death Valley it is
A sea of dry heat
And not a drop of water
In sight
Nature humbles challengers
And those who take her lightly
Caring not a whit
For the fate of either
Death Valley

In response to this week’s One Word Photo Challenge: dry.
Does it get any drier than this? The valley floor is 86 meters (282 feet) below this sign.
