  I very much enjoyed looking through your site and pictures. I too am a photographer and take many of the same type of pictures. I have always wanted to visit the old ghost towns of the southwest but haven`t been able to because of the lack of funds. You have a good eye photography and have been very blessed to be able to do what you love. Thank you for sharing.

I visited the Gold Mining Town of Bodie in October 2011.  I was very impressed with the town, it felt like I stepped back in history.  The Donkeys roaming the street was unique.  Living in West Virginia and visiting Nevada was like night and day.  I will return.  A very nice Website

Thanks for the great pictures of a beautiful state that is more than just LasVegas..Although it is an interesting place to visit I think the real beauty of any state is what God created and gave us as a place of meditation--the natural wilderness. Long may the West be a place of vast beauty and remain wild.

Excellent site. I am jealous of the places you have been and the things you have seen. What a world, huh? I very much liked your vehicle and camp setup. It is something to strive for! Bruce Newland

Regarding: Abandoned Mines / Picture Rock Mine

The impressions in the rock you reported as "various sea plants and sea life" is incorrect.  Correctly, the impressions are pyrolusite which is a mineral consisting essentially of manganese dioxide.

The impressions are so detailed they are often mistaken as fossils.  I even once saw a slab impression in a Florida museum mislabled as "Unknown Fossil". I pointed it out, but the curator was upset that an amatuer would know something he didn't.  A few months later, I noticed the lable changed to "Pyrolusite".
