Since my grandmother mentioned it in her fantastic post, I thought I would say a little blurb.

My grandparents are notorous for stopping at the most interesting places. Historical, fun, just because.. and side of the highway wonders. you name it.  We (the grandkids) have been stopping with them for many, many years! (Any of you can pipe in your stories here….)

These places are almost always fantastic once we get there. However, there have been a few trips that  the grandkids later opened lawsuit because of the trauma caused. (Jamie should be posting a story about this!)

Calico Ghost town was a pretty cool place. Located in Yermo, California and nestled in the hills Calico Ghost town features memories of California’s silver strike days.  Five original buildings and a refurbished town feature all kinds of awesome activities from camping, food, train rides, and mine tours.  We walked up and down the streets of the town, dined, and rode the train for a tour of the mining areas.  The views were brilliant, and the town was alive and breathing just like no time had passed!
