Description
General Store/Restaurant along Harquahala Rd in Harquahala Valley about 100 m north of the closed cafe in the previous post. It was Saturday afternoon and there was a steady trickle of costumers, at the rate of about one every 5 minutes, usually by pick-up truck. All were locals that live scattered throughout this valley. The restaurant seemed to be closed, not sure, because the pace is so slow. This area is about 7 miles south of Interstate 10.

Cool shot
Strangely depressing!
Old school by the highway shopping!
What do the people live on? Farming? I've always wondered with these off the beaten track places. Nice photo. More alive than the motel. I bet everyone knows everyone in a place like this. Keep up the good work! :-)
Excellent clear shot!!
@T.Rex! The majority of the people here have farming related jobs, i.e. field workers, farm truck drivers, well drillers, small shops that sell and repair farm related equipment, a garage that services cars and trucks and most of them have an acre or two of desert land with a pre-fabricated home on it that allows them maybe to grow some corn and vegetables and raise some chickens. The Harquahala Valley encompasses about 100 sq miles and I would estimate that there are about 100 or so people that live here, but I could be off!.
@T.Rex! They also have something in common. They are fiercely independent, they don' like government interference, and they are probably all Republicans and voted for Trump.There are some Mexicans here (I call all Latinos Mexicans which the majority of them are, but not all), but these Latinos usually have come to the US as migrant workers and have been here for generations, and is them that do most of the actual field work.
Cool, great capture!
