So this is the front doorway to the Hotel Meade, where the big Bread Oven has it's home. This Hotel was the first County Courthouse until the gold rush began and Dr. Meade bought the building and turned it into a necessary Hotel. I love visiting here, its peaceful and all the places left are kept up and repaired from any weather damage. I will try to post a few more interesting photos from this lovely ghost town. It is now a National Park. Please enjoy

Verena - Even these front doors look like viable entries into the contest. Good photo work here. Thad

What a creepy looking old hotel. Did you go inside to see if the rooms were clean?

Like the angle for this shot Lady V. Would love to here the stories those walls could tell.

A magnificent structure, Verena. It looks like it could be restored to it's original beauty, if they wanted to do it. Very nice shot.

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals

It does look like a scene from a ghost western. Perhaps one of those weird Tarantino things. Really spooky!

There's always something wonderful and mysterious about old buildings; the same goes for old people as well I would guess:):) lol!!
