Bodie

We spent our 13th anniversary exploring an old ghost town named Bodie. It's an abandoned gold mining town that at one time had over 10,000 people living there.









This is the Bodie jail. It looks innocent enough until you read how there was a group of vigilantes that would pull people out of the jail and hang them without a fair trial. Oh yeah, this was the wild west.





You get the strangest feeling looking inside these houses. It was like there was a plague and people just stood up and walked away from all of their belongings. There are plates and coffee mugs on the table as if someone was in another room. Kinda eery...
