Bodie Ghost Town

Bodie Ghost Town is the official ghost town of California. A mining boom town, it was known as a rough place with killings nearly every day. It was a place so tough that one little girl who learned she was moving there wrote, "Goodbye God, I am going to Bodie."

Today it is a town forgotten by time. The historical society keeps the town in a state of arrested decay. Basically, they are not restoring the town but are maintaining it so it does not crumble and fade away.

We recently spent a few hours in Bodie and if you have never been, I hope these photos entice you to visit.
