Bodie Ghost Town, Part 1 contains a bit more information and background on some of the buildings and sites than will be found here, in Part 2. I just had so many photos to share and didn’t wan’t to bog down the loading process by having too many images in one post. So here’s another batch of favorites from Bodie Ghost Town, a great California State Park. I think I need to return soon, though. While putting these posts together, it became apparent that more photos are needed. Part 3 is on the horizon…
