Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Uluru (at Ayers Rock), sunset the night before, and then the following day in the rain. Click photos for larger size. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Wet; not dry. We went to the Outback, to Alice Springs and Uluru and Kata Tjuta, where we expected dry weather. You know, desert. Instead we got rain most of the five days we were there. It was amazing.

Wet Desert: Red Centre Wet Centre
http://wet-desert.blogspot.com/2010/09/red-centre-wet-centre.html
Wednesday, September 15, 2010. Red Centre Wet Centre. We booked a vacation in the red centre of Australia, the outback where Alice Springs stands athwart the railroad lines and the rock Ulurul reaches for the sky. It's winter, but Oz has been dry. Not this week. Our planned base walk around the rock had to be cancelled when we couldn't walk through the floods over the path. Vast waterfalls cascade down the face of the rock iself. Is it the wet desert, or is it Hawaii? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Also from early issues of POPULAR ELECTRICITY. Something that looks a little bit more like we would expect today, the Duntley could be picked up and carried by your maid. From the May, 1909 issue.

http://pictorio.blogspot.com/2013/01/wild-nature-from-window-of-your-passing.html
Interesting images I've found. Now, you've found them, too. Friday, January 25, 2013. Wild Nature from the Window of Your Passing Train. Go West, and see the wild. Well, maybe not quite from the train as you pass by, but something to look for when you go hunting out there. Artwork by H. W. Hansen; ran in the May 1907 issue of the CENTURY MAGAZINE. This ad for travel on the Southern Pacific Railway, through Oregon and California, is from the eBay catalog listings of seller americanartarchives.
