bodie bodie bo bodie
on our way to reno via the 395 and mono lake we made a detour to the old timey ghost town of bodie. bodie celebrates its 150th anniversary this summer but just so ya know, it wasn't completely abandoned until the early 1940's. that said, it makes for a pretty neat trek out to the middle of nowhere and along a three mile stretch of unpaved road. the only sore spot i think was that we got there just before lunch time and that bright, bright sun was super hot and my pics are all a little too bright. i wish bodie opened earlier. can you imagine how cool it would be to photograph during the sunrise? make sure you bring lots of water when you visit, a hat would be a good thing as well and if you have your head on your shoulders you'll remember to bring your own favorite hat from home so that you won't end up in a stupid stupid antm baseball cap that you picked up in desperation at a wal-mart in palmdale. so here ya go, bodie through my eyes...a lot of old door knobs, spooky interiors shot through windows, people peeking in through windows and that pretty, pretty, so blue sky!
