I used to live in California and while we were there, we’d always go to these ghost towns, calico, Bodie and Oatman in Arizona. They were so cool. I love them.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful place. You had captured everything well
Nice video! We love abandoned buildings and villages. We are in Athens currently and there are some empty/abandoned buildings dotted about and we so want to go in. When we were in Cyprus we visited an abandoned village (Old Theletra) and it so enjoyable to experience.
That was awesome, Scott and Tracy! I would love to visit this place at some point. :).
The late years of the Wild West, a la Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, is brief but one of the most interesting eras in US history. Thanks for the tour of Bodie!
What an eerie, cool place, steeped in history, like it's been abandoned. Ghost hunters must love it here! Thanks for sharing! 😊
It's so cool town. It's a place that looks like it could be the setting for a Western movie.
It's a charming town with a real sense of history. Thanks for sharing !
Nice ghost town with the vibes of the Wild West! 🤩🤩Thanks for sharing!😊😊🐷
Such a interesting old mining town with a vibrant history and some pretty good ghost stories.
Really cool place. Thanks for sharing
That’s really cool. Looks just like an old west movie set.
Bodie is one of the places that really stuck with me when I was a kid. Really want to go back one of these days. Thank you for sharing!
