Quiet Pause In The Desert.

While I was driving through the desert in Nevada, I had to stop and do some laundry. When I walked in, I noticed how quiet everyone was and it allowed me to just people watch while my laundry was done. After a bit, this gentleman walked past and I could see the picture right away. I asked him for his photograph and he contemplated, deciding if he trusted me or not, before he said yes.
