Union and Main, Bodie, CA
Most of the buildings have burned or fallen down since this town's heyday in the late 1800's. But I love how this perspective creates an image in my mind of what it once was.

Bodie Bank
This is all that's left of Bodie Bank after a fire destroyed it in 1932. Despite Bodie's rowdy reputation, this bank was never robbed.

What's left standing along Main Street in Bodie, CA
Once a bustling mining town of 8k-10k people during it's boom period is now nothing but an old ghost town. The hotel and saloon in this picture used to be quite the place to tie one on during the late 1800's.
