FMTSO: Entrances

I know this is a late entry but I wanted to participate even after my frustration with Blogger and Chrome the past couple of days. So, here is my late entry of entrances in my town.  These are all from my archived photos, 2009 or 2010.  It was the best I could do this week. Hopefully, I will get some fresh photos very soon.

Entrance into Bonnie Springs Ghost Town in Las Vegas.

 

 

Entrance to the cemetery and the restaurant.

 

 

Not the greatest picture, but this is the entrance to the chapel at Bonnie Springs.

 

 

The door to one of the shops at Bonnie Springs.

 

That's it for this week. 

 

Please visit more participating photos by checking out the home page of the Friday My Town Shoot Out blog. And if interested, we'd love for you to join us for next week's theme.
