I love Ghost Towns!

I have always wanted to go to a real Ghost Town so when we were trying to decide what to do for our anniversary I suggested Virginia City, so we went and I loved it! The town has a really interesting history that is too long to blog about, but you should Google it. It was kind of creepy, especially up on Boot Hill where they buried the men that were hung in the town, but the old buildings were so fascinating to me. The only paved road is the highway that runs right through the middle of town, the rest of them are dirt. There are still almost 200 people that live there (compared to around 10,000 back in the day). OK, enough about that, enjoy the pictures!
