Gratitude365- Living the Dream (KNM#339)

You have to admire those who can put aside their fears and live out the dreams of their hearts. Such was the case with Marta Becket. She rented this recreation hall near Death Valley in 1967. She began repairs, created the sets, painted murals on the adobe walls and renamed it the Amargosa Opera House. In 1970, journalists from National Geographic discovered Becket doing a performance at the Amargosa Opera House without an audience. Their profile and another in Life led to an international interest in Becket and her theater. She began performing to visitors from around the world, including such notables as Ray Bradbury and Red Skelton.

    Pretty! I love the pictures you’re sharing. I just looked at google maps so I can figure out how long it would take us to get to Death Valley. (We’ll take lots of water.)
