Weekend mode

This morning Clay and I discussed the agenda for the day and decided that there was nothing pressing. Clay said he had formulated a plan, but it has since slipped his mind, so we are both in the weekend mode. One thing I do have is a few more pictures left from Chloride to share.


A couple more cabins. 

I'm sure we can all appreciate the reason for keeping THIS  particular gate closed.

More rusty stuff!!! 









Hand cut logs 
with square nails.

 The village welcoming committee.

This building was the military barracks for the soldiers sent here to protect the miners.

The rest of the day will be devoted to enjoying the good life while watching Olympics and baseball.

  1. Great pictures, really enjoyed the tour. Just checking to ensure you did close that gate behind you...

  2. That is a really interesting little town. I think all towns should have a "Welcoming" committee. That is a very interesting one for sure.

  3. Do you suppose they could put a square nail in a round hole?

  4. I don't know for sure, but I think you should have left the gate open just to spice up the Good Life, but the welcoming committee might have bitten you in the leg for being recalcitrant. :P

    1. With the serious tone of that sign I feared being hauled off to the Chloride Hanging Tree.

    1. The gate is secure and serving its purpose, whatever that is.

    1. I expect everything would be chaos if the gate were left open.

  7. Great tour you have given us. Maybe what ever is behind the gate is a gost dog or something.
