Bodie Adventure

On Sunday, my original plan of visiting Devils Postpile was scrapped because the recent 18+ inches of snow closed down the road. Argh! So we drove up north on Hwy 395 toward Mono Lake and Bodie.

The day was beautiful, sunny and no clouds at all. We followed the signs to Bodie where there is paved road until the last 3-4 miles and it's gravel/dirt road. Along the way, we saw sheep with their shepherd & sheep dogs, mules and beautiful scenery.

There was plenty of cars parked in the parking lot with lots of people but the town is actually bigger than I thought so we didn't have crowds of people clumped at any one place. The town of Bodie is a former mining town and you can read more about it here. 

It really is a fascinating place and a photographer's dream. Hector could have spent all day here while I went off with the kids. If you haven't visited Bodie, you should definitely put it on your list.

So here are photos but you can check out the full set on my Flickr site.
