High Pressure System: Part One
“Far from civilization, perfectly landscaped mounds dotted the desert with newly constructed dirt roads winding around them and the piles of excess dirt, rocks, and concrete debris. We were led to a perfectly manicured grassy hill circled with newly planted trees that seemed totally out of place. It looked as if we were all walking into a hovel in a hillside. However, I was pleasantly surprised once we entered through the heavy metal doorway. The building entry was brand new and the lobby looked... as if it was from a high-rise apartment in downtown with rich wood accents and fake ficus trees in the corners. Where there should have been elevators, another set of heavy doors opened to basic concrete staircases leading down. A young man stepped into the lobby from the stairwell and he waited until all eyes were on him before he spoke. I wasn’t the only one still in shock. The mood in the room was already somber even with the frazzled parents attempting to console their fussy children, and some cranky, well-dressed couples with more luggage than they could carry whispering unhappily to each other.MoreLess
