Hope all "The Friends of Bodie" have reserved
their BBQ dinner for next Sat. festivities...
The costumes and town are getting "gussied up"
for the Annual Event that is attended by many,
even those that are ancestors of the
Original Bodieites.
For many this is an annual pilgrimage that
everyone makes happily to revisit the town
and old friends.. And heck it gives everyone
a chance to party and Bring the town ALIVE
for one more day.. and relive what it must
have been like to live there...
Only thing missing is the constant sound of
the Stamp Mill....Fake gun-fighters are
usually provided for your enjoyment.
But drunks are still not tolerated well by
the locals and now the Rangers are there now
to keep the peace.
Come Early and Stay Late
and join in the Parade down Main Street.
Ladies remember your parasols as the
Summer sun can cause one to Glow.
Party ON....
**Be sure to bring YOUR video camera
and bring some Bodie videos HOME
with you... and then post them, OK?

how was the annual FOB Day for Aug 2009? I couldn't make it, will there be one for 2010? Is there a date so I can put it on my calendar?
It was GREAT as usual and there should be one this year... but they are hurting financially to even keep thje people in the Museum. We should know the date sometime in June.. so watch for the post.. it will still be in August as always....
HOPE you can come this year....
Get your costume ready and bring the kids and camera ...
