Anyone who watches my blog knows I can’t pass up an old weathered door. This one I discovered in the abandoned gold rush town of Bannack, Montana. The broken chain tells the story of a town and buildings that were deserted because the gold gave out and everyone left the town, now village turned into a museum of old western gold rush lore. The broken chain on the door reflects the story of the abandoned search for gold as the buildings were left to bleach in the hot desert sun of southwest Montana.
