Is there ever enough gold/silver/oil? The Comstock Lode isn't as well known as some of the other famous gold/silver rushes.
Ha, fair point. No.
And you are right. According to some sources it was #8 on the most lucrative strikes.
The B&B is gorgeous. Of course you had a quilt on the bed.
It was super charming. Next up: I'll share about the luscious breakfast she served.
I love spooky old towns. They give me the creeps but in a good way.
Yes, there was nothing nefarious about the "vibe" in town. And no stories about revenge-seeking "ghosts".
Oh how fun! I knew that the INSIDE filming and the OUTSIDE filming were done at different locations... the outside ones being done at Timberline Lodge in Oregon. They definitely made it all so spooky in how they filmed.This would be interesting but creepy, too. We explored the famous Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. It is supposed to be haunted and it felt like it was, especially the hallways. They filmed the movie, The Shining, there.
Were there lots of tourists in town? It sounds like mostly locals were hanging around.
Actually, no not a huge ton. It wasn't crowded, but the one place serving dinner at 8:00 was doing enough business that it appeared to be "enough" to keep it afloat. But in the smaller bars, it was mostly locals that looked like they were into farming or ranching.
