Errands today in a nearby old Gold Rush town. I parked at the far end of the main street because my destination was at the other end and I got in a 20 min walk there. Pics are mainly of the old building which is now a coffee house built in front of an idle gold mine shaft (on purpose) for a business in 1859.
Here is the building - the original bldgs burned in a fire that destroyed most of the town in the 1850s...

There are chairs and tables back into the shaft "rooms" w/dirt floors. You can see the wooden walkway along the corridor...

Beyond the point you're allowed to go - further down into the shaft/hillside...

Upstairs in what I am calling a small ballroom...

A pretty tree in bloom in the parking lot I started from.
