You Know You're in Nevada When

– You find a roadside attraction with 40+ cars, most buried nose-down in the ground
– Residents say the owner is in jail for "taking pot shots at people"
– You're light painting this delivery van and find a leg trap on the floor, right next to where you stepped
Welcome to the "International Car Forest of the Last Church".

As the story around town went, the exchange of gunfire was between neighbors.  +Lori Hibbett and I  live in Nevada, and the occasional eccentricity of some of its residents is part of its charm.  We figured we'd probably be fine going back after dark for a little light painting, as long as we weren't mistaken for the neighbor (or as long as the shooter was still in jail).  But apparently there had been some vandalism to the cars.  Finding the leg trap could indicate that the site was booby trapped, a possibility too creepy for stumbling around in the dark.  We decided to call it a night and move on.
