Today we took a short trip to Virginia City. This is the first Presbyterian Church that was dedicated on January 1, 1867. At that time, the cost was $12,000.
We selected a good day to visit. It was a nice day and towards the end of our tour, it started getting busy with tourists. Tully had a great time going in and out of stores, and people had to stop and say hi.
This building was built in 1864 and it is the Nevada State Firemen’s Museum.
Here is the Bucket of Blood Saloon. The last time we were here, it was about at least 22 years ago. It has changed! In fact, Virginia City has changed so much! Road Hog wanted to go in and buy a hat but once we walked in, and saw all the changes, we left. I won many silver dollars from this saloon, but even those machines were gone.
Silver Dollar Hotel.
If it’s got testicles or tires, it’s sure to give you trouble. 😂😂
An old safe sitting outside. It was brought to Virginia City by Mule Train.
Views of far away hills.
More views. If you click on the photo you will see snow on the hills. In fact, there was still snow in Virginia City, on the shady side of the buildings.
