Kelso Depot-California’s Golden Parks (144)

Huell attends the grand reopening of the Kelso Depot and not only tours the beautifully renovated and restored 1928 building, but talks with locals about its rich history. It’s a true celebration as the Kelso Depot begins its new life as a museum and information center for the Mojave National Preserve.

Since I don’t have TV anymore…at this time in my life I can’t afford cable…I have so thoroughly enjoyed Huell’s donation of his programs and your effort and energy to bring it to all of us. Much Appreciation….

I must be a modern version of a desert rat. My goal for retirement (at the end of this school year May 2017) is to go see every Mojave desert place of interest that Huell went to. I’ve been a Mojave desert weekender since 1962 with my family, and a permanent desert dweller since 1979. I have been a musician and played at every old bar, dive, club, and hall from Cajon Pass to Barstow & Ft. Irwin and all points in between. I drove construction and welding supplies to Goldstone on Ft. Irwin to construct the satellite antennas that now communicate with Mars rovers & more. I brought all the materials to the solar generating plants dotted across the desert. Now I’ve been a public school teacher in Adelanto and Hesperia for the San Bernardino county Superintendent of Schools since 2002. I rode dirt bikes in the 1970’s and 4WD trucks since the 1980’s. Even after all this time I’m amazed at how much there still is left to discover. God love you, Huell, and I do. too. Thanks for the Gold.
