Welcome to Virginia City, NV, southeast of Reno.  Once a boomtown with the 1859 discovery of the Comstock Lode, the first major silver deposit in the United States.

The Bucket of Blood Saloon!

A remnant of the lawless past, its name for a bloody gunfight that occurred in the 1880’s.    :o

St. Mary’s In-the-Mountains Catholic Church. The distinctive footsteps of Father Meinecke are still heard coming from an upstairs alcove in the church.

The deceased priest walks with a cane. Parishioners and visitors have all heard inexplicable sounds.

The church was built in 1868, burned down in 1875 and rebuilt in 1876.
