In other news... For those of us who drive to Yosemite via the highway 120 route, it passes through the historic gold mining town of Chinese Camp. Chinese camp burned almost completely in a fire about 7 weeks ago. The town is literally gone, the major historic buildings essentially destroyed. I do not know their fate, if there will be ay effort to preserve what little is left. The first shot is the Wells Fargo bank and stage building; the second is what I believe was the post office. I did these in mono to better relate my own feelings about the devastation. But the last one in color shows that indeed life finds a way... Oh, for those that knew it, the old white wood church was totally wiped out. The road up to it is closed off, so I don't know how well the headstones survived, but suspect they did okay.
