So you have seen my blog on Thunder Mountain in Imlay, NV. Now I present you with another type of personal expression in architecture. When traveling not too far from Thunder Mountain I spotted another unusual group of buildings. We were traveling thru ranchlands in Yerington, NV. (more…)
Here are pictures showing the details of Thunder Mountain.
Okay, not like it’s any big deal, but I forgot I saw 2 more animals while I was on my trip to Yellowstone. We also saw a deer. He was very handsome.
And, we saw this beaver. (more…)
I have had a few people ask me what where all the animals that I saw on my vacation in Yellowstone. Here is the list:
Grizzly, One black griz and one cinnamon.
Here is my newest print called Magpie, because it’s a, well, a Magpie.

There are a number of scuplted figures at Thunder Mountain. Most, if not all, represent Native Americans.
I thought I knew about most of the Outsider enviroments in the United States. But driving down Hwy 80, which runs across the top of Northern Nevada, I spotted something very unusual. I recognized even at a distance that I had come across an art enviroment. There are no signs directing you to it, but there is an exit from the freeway. When you arrive at this structure you are greeted by the signs that you can see in the above photo.
I have many Thunder Mountain photos to share with you, so I hope you will bear with me since I will be posting 3 blogs regarding this monument. First, I will cover the overall look of the buildings, Second, I will show the various sculpted figures and lastly, I will post details of the construction.
I hope you guys don’t get too bored with me…
See, I told you. Here is my daughter, aka McBlaimy, with Kevin Murphy, Bill Corbitt, and Mike Nelson of Rifftrax and Mystery Science Theater 3000. She said they are a swell bunch of guys. (more…)
