Ghost town truck

Still in Bannack, Montana, where the Gold Rush began back in the 1860's. Here's a couple of an old International truck that's probably close to a century old. If you listen closely, you can maybe hear the miners laughing and shouting and the sounds of the town echoing faintly across the hills... maybe just the wind, but, then again, maybe not...

Tom, Beautiful images of what was what back in the gold rush days!Thanks for sharing. I listened and heard faintly, leave you fool, we got all the gold out.

Fine shots - I think #2, with the truck in context of the town is more evocative and feeds into your story.

Beautiful set, Tommy! Of course, those sounds could be coming from your haunted house.

Two fine images. The composition in #2 is excellent. Very nostalgic shots. Stay well and keep up the great work.

Yes, I agree. #1 was just to give a kind of lonely feel to the truck, but I also like #2 better as an emotive image. Thanks for checking in!

They very well may be.... I was in the old church on this trip and the door inside opened and shut on its own - just once. There was no wind, and no one else in the house... at least, no one else living... kind of spooky and fun!

A free truck for a do-it-yourself restoration. Some welding experience required.
