It's always a good thing to find another desert oddity. If you like old things like I do (especially cars), this place would be right up your alley. A guy named Johnny Cloud started collecting old cars and other things many years ago. He eventually ended up with so much stuff, that he turned his place into a "museum." Bard California is a tiny little town (population under 100) near Yuma Arizona.
This post has a lot of photos, so I'll give everyone a break and not include much more narrative. I could say a lot more about this place, and all of it would be good.
Middle of nowhere
There must have been 150 cars here. This was my favorite.
There were also a ton of other historical items
Most of the cars were either Ford Model T's, or Model A's. A lot of them were trucks.
Johnny Cloud has a story for almost every car he has. Who owned it, where they lived, and how he came to get it.
Two posts ago, I was at another place (Mentone Beach) that also had a lot of outboard motors lined up like this.
I can't even imagine how much money these lights are worth, but I know it's a lot.
Anybody here (besides me) that remembers when you wouldn't dare take a car across, or into the desert without at least one of these water bags in front of your radiator?
Well, this place is in the desert...
An RV that is actually older than ours!
I don't know about you, but this looked darn spooky to me.
