#3- and a song about Bodie for your pleasure....

This videographer even composed and sang a tune
with his band about Bodie Town. It is fun to see
someone appreciates it also as much...
Named after Waterman S. Bodey when he
discovered some gold just North of Mono Lake
and In 1877, the Standard Company struck pay dirt
and a gold rush transformed Bodie from a town
of 20 people to a boomtown of 10,000 at it's peak !
Who knew a Signmaker that didn't have room
for the tail on the "y" in Bodey would change
the towns Name to Bodie forever?
