Silver City Idaho

A couple weeks ago some friends and I made a day trip to Silver City, Idaho. If you have never been or never heard of Silver City it is a ghost town about 2 hours southwest of Boise, Idaho. If you like old west ghosts towns put this one on your list to visit. The buildings are beautiful and the town which in its hayday had about 2500 people walking the streets is still much alive with history today. The western town is tucked away in the mountains and the feel of the era is ever present as you walk dusty streets. For more history on the town visit their website http://www.historicsilvercityidaho.com/ and this weekend September 14th, 2013 the town has an "Open House" and some of the great buildings and houses are opened up for you to peak inside. A great place to visit the yester years!
