The Carrizo Plain National Monument, located in southeastern San Luis Obispo County, California is one of those very isolated location where you can recollect yourself and integrate with the nature.

I didn't see any other person there or passing car on Soda Lake Road pictured in this photo during my 4 hours stay at this location. The bench sitting there and waiting the visitors from the next season is just an incredible visual element and a subject of meditation in the same time. A meditation about the power of the climate/nature over the human civilization. The mountain in the background a part of Saint Andreas Fault.
