Just these ghosts (see tomorrows post as well).
This Miner's store was rumored to sell everything but whisky.

These old frontier towns always make the most interesting pictures, I am not sure If we have any "Ghost" towns up here in Canada, I should look into that, might make an interesting vacation adventure.

Another really interesting photo with great details!
I have put up a quick web page to welcome home Jerry's Son - he was leaving Baghdad today and coming home. Jerry is so nice to all of us - and loves his son very much. Would you like your link putting on the web page? I'll keep updating it with links from aminus3 members till bedtime.
Welcome Home Charlie

@Anne: You can absolutely put my link up there! Welcome home Charlie!
Great job Craiger - bring me a souvenir from there! I would love to see this part of the "old west"...

Nice colours and awesome store! I like the name at the top a lot!

That scenery is the perfect background for the store, not to mention you can see the background a lot more easily because the back half of the store is missing. It's like looking at two pictures instead of just one.

Fabulous composition! The sky is a perfect shade of blue! Nice work Cragier!

seems to be strange place.

I'd love to visit one of these places... so many 'false memories' from movies and TV shows I feel like I know the place! But I'd have to watch my back. And not talk to the weird old guy in period dress.

Well this cetainly brings back memories! We were there during our USA tour and the place was so amazing but at the same time so eerie.... by the time we left we were hearing voices! Superbly well shot!
