WOW ! Mountain Pass in the news ! I lived there as a child in the ‘60s and attended the 2 room school house. And met Elvis Presley at our little post office/grocery store. He was riding a motorcycle with another rider on their way to Las Vegas. He stopped at the little store for soda and snack. My Mom talked with him while I just gwacked. He was very nice. The most favorite place I ever lived.

What a great little anecdote. The only time I’ve ever been a couple of yards from someone famous was in New York City, where I ran into Ethan Hawke and his then main squeeze, Uma Thurman. Just as photogenic in real life as they are on the big screen.
