Heading north from Las Vegas to Tonopah NV and Winnemucca NV is a lonely, barren stretch of road until:
Aliens appear to have landed and set up some brothels.
They brought some outer space trinkets to sell:
And one giant firecracker:
Area 51 is an extension of Edwards Air Force Base and the subject of much secrecy including conspiracy theories and UFOs. I’m sure you didn’t believe me when I said I’d seen a UFO as a child. I’d no proof. It was only lodged in my little girl memory.
NOW I have photographic proof of a more recent sighting!! Ooooo! What’s that?
Do you know what this is?
Very cool that you captured a shot of the drone!

Someone who was supposed to be keeping his eyes on the road spotted it first!

Nancy, this is an experiment to see if you get a photo. If It’s tech gobble de gook – it didn’t work1

A drone ?? and to capture it on camera… how lucky are you?? But I must ask… did you stop in for a bite to eat and something to drink at the nude girls inn??
Also, did you know they were spying on you and how important you must be to have them do it with a drone??

Gosh. I feel like a celebrity now. Should I head for Hollywood or Washington? And no we didn’t stop. We were running from the drone!

Very nice drone you’ve captured! As barren as this part of Nevada is, I wonder how many stop by to see the nude girls? 😉

There were some abandoned brothels so I guess business isn’t as good as it used to be!

Can’t see how it could be. 😉

Brothels are a little out of my sphere of sensibility! I was just so surprised to see a big BROTHEL sign in the middle of nowhere.

I photographed that same firecracker but never saw any drones…..cool photos. That part of NV sure doesn’t have much else to offer. So perfect home for aliens and brothels 🙂

We were lucky to see the drones . . or were they following us?

So that’s what a drone looks like! Wonder why they made it look like a mosquito?

I don’t know why it looks like a mosquito but I think I know what it was doing – spying on me for spreading alien and UFO rumors. They haven’t caught me yet.

I wonder if the drone was heading out to shoot down some mafia big wig in Vegas, along with some “collateral damage”… 😉

Haha! I hadn’t thought of that! Las Vegas is the seat of power in the United States.

If you look closely you’ll see there is a USAF emblem on the UFO/drone. It was very exciting to see a drone – almost as exciting as a UFO!

I assume it’s a drone of some sort. Destination? Hmmmm…

It is. I’m not sure it had a destination that day. It seemed to be going round and round and up and down. I think they were practicing how not to crash it! Or had the aliens abducted it?
