Today, Rosh Hashanah falls on the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam, the single bloodiest day of conflict for American troops in U.S. history. Yes, that's counting D-day. But without this catastrophic clash in Maryland, could Lincoln have ever issued the Emancipation Proclamation? http://bit.ly/V3CQW9

Is it a ghost town? Half the town is in ruins and almost all business is gone, yet there are still 65 hardy souls that live here, along with a saloon and gift shop. Come along with The World on Wheels as we visit the Gold Rush...ghost town?...of Hornitos, California. Brand new report with pics and video: http://tinyurl.com/buuh6az

One of the richest gold mining areas was the south end of California's Motherlode where a few mines still operate. On a brand new report at The World on Wheels, we visit Mariposa which not only celebrates its place in Gold Rush history and the home of John C. Fremont, but offers a great, relaxing escape from the bustling cities below. With plenty of pictures and a new video: http://tinyurl.com/8xz26bt
