Had an incredible opportunity to take photos in at a private residence named Georgetown.
This little town was built by a man named George Smith who wanted to showcase all of the items he had collected while working in Hollywood.
I am not sure how big the entire property is, but it has enough room for this dilapidated town that includes a bar, a cantina, a hotel, a garage, a station house, and a lot more. Evidently he built one building a year, full scale.
The buildings are filled with what he collected. We could go in some of the buildings, others were too dangerous to enter because they were falling apart.
It was a fascinating trip, and a little sad. George Smith died about 12 years ago and his town is slowly decaying. Felt that I had a real opportunity to see something that might not survive ten years down the road.
Was able to go thanks to my Sonoma County Photography Meetup group, which arranged this trip with the permission of the family who lives there now.
Truly an American Ghost Town, even though no one ever actually lived there.
Georgetown, Colorado, USA
There are several well-preserved old mining towns nestled in the valleys of Colorado. Often, there are ski lifts right at the edge of town.
Georgetown University is the nation's oldest Catholic University conveniently located in the District of Columbia. Georgetown University offers its students the dynamic combination of accessible and prominent faculty, an extensive curriculum, and an exciting and culturally appealing location.
Brief capture of Georgetown's campus, since I didn't bother to do much sightseeing beyond the walk to/from the shuttle.

Looking forward; this young Rastafarian contemplates the rest of the afternoon in the ghetto.
