Cherished Burning Man pit stop - Empire Store - in limbo

By JENNY KANE - Associated Press

In this photo taken Aug. 25, 2019, Jeremy Keesh, a Burning Man attendee from Chicago, buys coconut water at the Empire Store from Brianna Hernandez in Empire, Nev. With aisles of booze, a quaint deli and a wide assortment of snack foods, the Empire Store is the last chance for a lot of items before Burning Man attendees head out to the desert. Most days of the year, the establishment about 90 miles north of Reno feels like an Old West holdout with faux silhouettes painted in the faux windows of the wooden facade. During Burning Man, the fur coats also are lined up in front on display with gold lamé bra-lets and tie-dye cat suits. (Jenny Kane/Reno Gazette-Journal via AP)/The Reno Gazette-Journal via AP)
