I work in a Right to Work state - Nevada. Wages are pretty high here, double what I made in NC as a matter of fact, for the same job.
Nevada is a expensive place.
My husband and I were in Death Valley and drove around Nevada... in November...10 years ago.
Pretty.
I think this would look neat in the landscape.
