When it all falls, when it all falls down
I'll be your fire when the lights go out
When there's no one, no one else around
We'll be two souls in a ghosttown
♫ When it all falls, when it all falls down
I'll be your fire when the lights go out
When there's no one, no one else around
We'll be two souls in a ghosttown ♫

♫I know we're all right
Cause we'll never be alone

Even with no light,
we're gonna shine like gold
in this mad, mad, In this mad, mad world

Mount Sniffle rises above the wood River as it runs through the Kirwin townsite in Shoshone National Forest in Wyoming. Upstream a little ways lies the site of a cabin that was being built in 1937 as a summer home for Amelia Earhar.t After she disappeared on her flight around the world, the cabin was never finished.

View along Golden Street with the two-story school and the three-story bank building in the background. The town began in early 1905 with the discovery of gold nearby. By 1907, Rhyolite had electricity, piped water, telephones, newspapers, a hospital, stock exchange, a school, opera house and two railroads. The town had a peak population of 5,000 people in 1908 and quickly declined in 1911 when the mines closed.
As I waited for my pizza to be made I took a little walk around Rowley and snapped a few pics with my phone. Rowley is usually empty, but on pizza nights it's crawling with folks from everywhere and not really conducive to photography so I didn't even bring my camera.
[aus der Wikipedia]:
Rhyolite ist eine Geisterstadt im Nye County des US-Bundesstaates Nevada. Sie entstand durch und verging mit einem Goldvorkommen und wurde nach dem für die Landschaft prägenden Rhyolith benannt. Rhyolite liegt nordwestlich von Las Vegas auf dem Weg ins Death Valley nahe Beatty, etwa 3 km nördlich der Nevada State Route 374.

It is in the Bullfrog Hills, about 120 miles (190 km) northwest of Las Vegas, near the eastern boundary of Death Valley National Park.

"I was so ahead of the curve,
the curve became a sphere,
fell behind all my classmates
and I ended up here."

I know it's not nature, but still it is - the dark clouds over the city and the horizon.
Anyway, this is my life now - a little behind than others and mostly in the library:)
Well, you can say I'm surrounded by the sky over my head and through my windows, and the ocean breeze that flows over this town and embraces as I walk cross the roads, and off to the clg n hospital I go n back to room with the little magic touch with me.
How's your lives going?
Sending you all loves, I miss you 💕
ps. I've opened a WhatsApp grp book club recently and it's small, open and there's no rules; and we're reading The Waves by Virginia Woolf - who has great words and phrases if I had the time I'd like to share - anyone interested to join in is most welcome :)
Rhyolite is a ghost town in Nye County, Nevada, United States. It is in the Bullfrog Hills, about 120 miles (190 km) northwest of Las Vegas, near the eastern boundary of Death Valley National Park.
The town began in early 1905 as one of several mining camps that sprang up after a prospecting discovery in the surrounding hills. During an ensuing gold rush, thousands of gold-seekers, developers, miners and service providers flocked to the Bullfrog Mining District. Many settled in Rhyolite, which lay in a sheltered desert basin near the region's biggest producer, the Montgomery Shoshone Mine.

Thank you for visiting!
in the famous "living ghost town" of randsburg, calif. sometimes the photo goddess really gives you a yell to quit "not" shooting and you know that if you ignore this shot, she will get very very angry. and an angry photo goddess is not to be messed with. so i flipped a U-eeee and voila!
when i shot this i originally thought i would use textures, but i rather like this "pure."
Another from the ghost town of Sparks, OK. Looks to have been an old gas station and or convenience store.
