Decayed in the Middle of Road

Somewhere in Iraq...

For most of us those few awkward middle school years were the worst and this list will remind you of why it was so terrible.

Bahrain is known for its miraculous Tree of Life that grows in the middle of the desert, miles away from water and other plants. This natural wonder is 400 years old and 25 meters in height. It attracts tourists from all over the world who wish to see the most mysterious tree that is able to survive in harsh conditions and is shrouded by legends.

These photos come from our visitor Maxwell Giacommo.

To explain you more about them, here’s what he wrote:

"Today, I achieved something I have wanted to do for a considerable length of time. A plane crossing the moon."

It is so interesting to recollect old memories. This time let’s look at the photos from Middle School dances and laugh at these most awkward moments in life.

1. Guys being shorter than girls

This lonely paid phone booth was once working. It spent decades in the middle of nowhere, being left in the desert for some unknown reasons. It had its own number: (760) 733-9969. Campers who happened to find this phone located 8 miles from the nearest paved road used to answer the incoming calls from everywhere or make calls themselves.

Don’t try to call its number today though, because the National Park Service decided to rip the lonely phone booth out, that was reportedly set up in the 1960s to provide phone service to miners and other people. An independent film appeared in 2000 devoted to this phone booth. But the year 2000 was also its end, as this was the year it was finally removed.
