Bodie Ghost Town

 
Follow the grain in your own wood.
    -Howard Thurman
 
 

Bodie is a turn-of-the-last-century mining town in Eastern California, not far from Mono Lake.  It's a popular tourist destination, and a photographer's mecca.

It is frequently the coldest place in California in the winter (the coldest place with a weather station, that is).


 


 
 
 
 
 
 


 

Like a flag.  The old screens and stripes.
 
 
 


 

Old fuel and food cans were recycled for siding
 
 
 
 

The irony of the electrical cord holding up the oil lamp.
 
 


 
 
 
 
 


 

A self-portrait, of a sort.
