calico ghost town!!!

 we had a great time at calico ghost town yesterday! Uncle Bela came with us too!
 They had a civil war re-enactment there for the day, and so, the town wasn't so ghostly!
 The bottle house

 Micah....a casualty of war
 This kid stole our hearts! We thought about takin' him home if his parents didn't survive the battle
 The ol' school house

 all aboard!
 Can't really remember why my face looks like I'm deep in thought........
 Seth with his buddy mud cake.
 How about a beer?  Make it a Root! haha. an old line from Richie Cunningham.......


 The crowd gathering around for the battle.
 Cannons!



 Our Favorite....Abe Lincoln.

 He talked and talked and talked.


 Minning for gold. Seth struck it rich and managed to get water all over him.
 Marching into battle
Ahhh the last leg of the journey.  We had a blast! Even boys got a little sunburn on their cheeks from the perfect weather. 

3 just gotta say::
