Well you are a 'gem' Lisa. How many people really care these days! And you do and that gives me hope that maybe we aren't going loony tunes just yet. i know there are more 'out there'. My Dad was in the Korean war. All my men relatives except for one and myself, going back three generations were in combat, not just in service. One of my Uncles was on a ship when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.... but I want to thank you Lisa for caring. It means a whole lot!

The cemetery is th dirt road across from the bridge. Next to Helena. Old 1800's, some whole families. We would stop in a clean up the gravesites. The old miner had a pile of rocks, with a glass jar telling his life story. Always brought him a fresh rock. across the bridge is historical marker of Bagdad town. Hello fom Washington. Trinity area we brought our children on the same type of adventures. Now that we have some time, we will have to bring the grandchildren.

You should visit the town of Julian, in southern California.

Not really a ghost town. Grew up in Petaluma CA not far from here. These are simply a couple buildings from the old times. Yet by no means is it a ghost town. They built a new downtown area not long after these buildings were built. Those other buildings are very much still in use and remodeled. I’m guessing these are on people’s land who decided to keep them to add character.
