Chaffin Cade Photography Blog: wedding and couples. A boomtown from 1876 - 1900, this spot saw the first commercially successful oil strike in California.
The area that once housed a community had a 13-room mansion (still there), a school house, bakery, social hall, boarding houses, bunkhouses, blacksmith shop and machine shop. By the 1930's, many of the town's residents had left, and by the 60's it was a ghost town. Today, it is a very cool, very unique spot. Rachael {hope} photography - journal. Events + design.
