Death Valley

They say it is one of the most unforgiving places on the planet. Five-thousand-nineteen square miles of desert wasteland, Death Valley is located in California about one-hundred miles west of Las Vegas. On July tenth, nineteen thirteen, it broke the official record for the hottest air temperature ever recorded in the world: one-hundred-thirty-four degrees Fahrenheit. That’s just the official recording. On July fifteenth nineteen seventy-two, the temperature is said to have reached two hundred…

Death Valley So far all we’ve done was search. For food, for water, for shelter. It has only been a day is the dry, heated Death Valley. There was very little water left in the van but, the water was non refreshing, warm water. As I take a glaze off in the horizon I see tiny, little clear heat waves and tumbleweeds. Gina, Jenny and I headed up towards a dusty, rocky mountain when, we found something. “Do you guys see that?” Jenny questioned in excitement from her long exhausting day. “Is that…

Death Valley “Finally! A campsite” said Gina. “I hope it has supplies that we can use.” We started walking to the campsite in the scorching hot weather I didn’t think we would make it 1½ miles to the campsite. My throat felt like a desert also. While we were walking I saw rattlesnakes and could hear him warning us to get away. We finally got to the campsite 1 ½ miles later. There was lots of water, hats for a little shade and food. We saw a backpack there so we stole it. While I grabbed it…

The photograph Valley of the Shadow of Death by Roger Fenton came about when political opportunities became worthwhile to cash on. The image encapsulated the notions of war under sensationalist ideals. This is not to say Fenton took the image only for money. Fenton took the image to showcase the grimier side to military life. The image just happened to be placed in the supervision of Prince Albert and Queen Victoria’s supervision. What other way did the United Kingdom have to show interest, even…

Death Valley The next morning we busted in the camper and found food And we needed water because we could barely even move in this hot,dry desert. We all screamed in delight, but more than food we wanted water. After we broke In the 3 campers and we grabbed our food that smelled good and sat down. After that we walked over to one of the tables and we saw a hose. We all lined up and downed the water. It was extremely warm, but it was at least water and that was good for me.I could barely stand…

Death Valley “Look!, an old, abandoned campsite,” I yelled,”I hope it's not just a mirage,” she thought. “I see it!” Jenny gasped. “there might be food there, or maybe someone to rescue us!” we walked over there and saw nothing but some old, gross alligator jerky. Jenny wasn’t so pleased. “if you want to survive, you have to eat it,” I told jenny. “ugh, it’s all sticky” gina said, Jenny gagged, “uhg, it tastes horrible.” “well would you rather…

Death Valley We’ve drove all over this hot, humid desert. In search for food, water, and most of all, shelter. As we we’re driving, the car ran out of gas. For good this time. We were trying drive to some trees we saw, but we have no more gas. Luckily, it was a short walking distance. We approached the trees then we saw something wonderful. we saw a trailer. “I can’t believe it,” Donna started, “We found somewhere to stay.” I tried opening the door, and surprisingly it was unlocked. We…

While the man was on the road, he was beaten by robbers to the point where he could not get up and walk. While he was lying there, a priest passes him by without offering any help, and so did a Levite. Jesus seemed to have been challenging the religiousness of the two religious groups, by implying that they put their righteousness rituals before the well-being of others who they are supposed to love. The specific implications were that the priest and the Levite were unwilling to become unclean…
