Today we head to Calico, California. This is a ghost town. There are actually a lot of people and shops (that sell "Make America Great Again" baseballs) here.
James has run afoul of the law in the past and it finally caught up with him.
Calico used to be a silver mining town, then a borax mining town, then a nothing mining town. Now it's a tourist trap. The saloon has some pretty strict rules, however:
But y'know, Kids Welcome.

It is very warm in Calico. Very, very warm. It's a cute little tourist trap town, with the chance to stretch your legs and learn some history.
James has made friends with some of the women on the tour - Maddie (Australia), Ramona (Switzerland), and Svetlana (Bulgaria). All were resting due to being over dressed.
We drove on to Laughlin, Nevada from here where the only thing worth noting is that it is pronounced with an F.
Next: sure is grand...
