We went on a mini vacation last week to visit some family. I didn’t have time to keep up on my daily posts but that’s ok.

We drove from Las Vegas to Reno and normally this is where I would begin my rant about how much that drive sucks.

This time however we did the drive during the day which made it seem a bit faster as well as we got to see just how crazy some of these small Nevada towns really look.
My favorite small town was Hawthorne. A few miles outside of Hawthorne we started seeing these little hills off the side of the road. The hills were in perfect order though and we’re all the same size. As we got closer to town you could see that these hills had doors and went on in rows as far as the eye could see.

Getting even closer to town we started seeing row after row of the same building. It’s honestly pretty creepy to see in real life. The uniformity of it all is amazing.
When we got to the hotel I started reading about how Hawthorne is the countries largest ammunition a dept and all the repeating hills with doors are called igloos and house all types of ammunition for our troops.
There’s also a place and sign that read Naval Warfare Training Center which seems a bit out of place in the middle of the Nevada desert. I did find some conspiracy theories out there where people think that underwater sea channels exist that could allow a submarine to enter one of these sea channels in Malibu and literally take it all the way to Hawthorne.
I don’t really believe it but it’s fun to want to believe it. I suppose if there are conspiracies to be had. The Nevada desert does make sense for many of them.

Just because you’re paranoid. Doesn’t mean they aren’t following you.
