Best day ever. <br /><br />Can I humbly add to the party?<br /><br />1. The Joshua Tree Inn is for sale. Not only can you stay in Room No. 8, but you can own it, too. Huzzah.<br /><br />2. More juicy bits to the story behind the cremation (according to some old-timer Joshua Tree folks): a very wasted Phil Kaufman and Michael Martin doused the coffin in fuel and lit it up not far from the road near Cap Rock (for those of you seeking the shrine) but bolted when they saw headlights in what was then just a remote national monument, thinking it was the po-lice. Poor Gram was only partially cremated- it was a real mess for the cops. Way to go Phil and Mike, right?<br /><br />3. Check out the painted tin Grievous Angel at True World Gallery in downtown JT if you ever get the chance.
