Driving around the North Bay near Suisun City, we came upon a geocache called (ironically, as it turned out) “Beautiful Downtown Denverton.” According to the geocache page description, “in 1878 the town [of Denverton] had a store and a blacksmith shop, a wheelwright, a meat market, a hotel, a school-house, and a Good Templars Hall.”
This is what’s there today.
There was also a foundation, now overgrown with weeds.
Or was it a farmhouse? A homestead where someone hoped to build a life for themselves?
It has all faded away.
For the Mundane Monday Challenge #110, finding beauty in the everyday.
Very interesting. Wonder who lived there and what happened.

Nice photos. Also does the foundation have treasure?

No, I think there were just weeds growing in there. It looked a little like a bathtub!

Just makes you want to sit down and ponder for awhile what used to be there, doesn’t it?
