On July 7th (our Anniversary) headed over to Virgina City and Navada City. I always enjoy going out to these two towns because they are so neat. Virgina City used to be one of the booming cities in Montana back in the 1800's. It not has some of the old places you can peer into and other that are antique shops, an old fashion candy store, and some picture places. It's basically a tourist trap. Navada City is an entire town put together by a collector of old frontier houses. Some guy has transported tons of old frontiers homes that have been abandoned (some of which fully stocked with the original sales items). For a minimal fee one can walk all around Nevada City and go in and out of the houses. It's very eerie like walking through a completely deserted ghost town. Some people amazingly still live in some of these frontier homes which surprised us as those that were lived in literally had plants growing through broken windows. Typical Montana in some ways! Absolutely LOVE it!


One of the last standing school houses. We thought it would be appropriate to put to teachers in front of it.
