# Dirty Hipsta in the Western Desert - Link: https://mywalkabout.net/dirty-hipsta-in-the-western-desert/ - Published: 2010-04-04T00:43:00-07:00 - Author: My Walkabout I’m still trying to figure out what a [Hipster](http://hipstercrite.blogspot.com/) is. But as someone much more in tune and creative than I wrote : _ ‘pretending we’re not hipsters is what we hipsters do best’ _ This weekend I wanted to have an adventure in my own back yard, so to speak. I realized that I’ve never really been to the Western desert of my home state. Early Saturday, disheveled, not showered, and full of Hipster energy, I finished my tea and was off…. [[  [*7lightningbolt*](http://www.7lightningbolt.com/)  I then got this fantastic idea. Back in 1993, myself and two girls ( one of which I was dating, and coincidentally was a complete Hipster)  drove from SLC to upstate WY to visit the Aunt of said girl I was dating before she went off to college. Around 2am, in the middle of the wild WY landscape, was a lightning storm unlike what I’ve witnessed before. We thought it would be a fun game to see who could lay in the middle of the road the longest, gazing into the night sky…… _If I remember, I think i’ll start getting at least one picture doing just that on all my future adventures._ [[   _ _I thought it would be an interesting project to try and capture what I saw through a new Hipsta photography feature on my camera. [[   I added a song to the video that I heard while out there. I think this selection is perfect. Don’t you?
