Next stop, Calico Ghost Town! It is a restored ghost town that was a silver mine. Think Greenfield Village meets Huckleberry Railroad, definitely a tourist trap but fun because it was mostly empty when we were there!

It was VERY windy while we were here and since they have their own campground, we stayed two nights. We definitely didn't want to be driving an RV down the road!

Checking in to my hotel.

Getting my kitty fix. This is the town's cat. Since it was early, nobody was there yet and she wanted to be fed! I miss my kitties!

 

 

 

The ghost town sits on the Calico Fault line and you can see this in the (empty) parking lot. The name calico comes from the many colors in the mountains.

Hats were definitely needed after being out in the wind all day.

Beer and pizza for
dinner at Lil's Saloon.





  Tomorrow, Death Valley!
