"Once There Was a Rainbow" by Carolyn Jean Thompson

12 x 9 watercolor pencils and watercolor


Once there was a pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow - here at this spot.  This is what is left of the old Bodie Bank in what is now a ghost town in Bodie, California.  In 1916 four men robbed the bank and escaped with $4,000 in money and jewelry.  In 1932 the bank was destroyed by fire.  All that is left is this vault.
