We're lost at Grafton Ghost town,Utah

The history of Grafton
We're totally lost when we went to Grafton Ghost town,Utah. The address of the Ghost town didn't found  in the GPS, as you know we  rely on GPS every time we go on the road trip. The GPS sent us on a wrong direction of dead end.We don't  have had a back up map of the Utah that time, but we knew Grafton Ghost town is just around the corner but we're having a hard time to find it. We tried to asked to some people but no one on the road and we're disappointed the restaurant is closed neither.
Grafton School  house-built in 1886
And we remember,when we passed the ZION NATIONAL  PARK the Grafton Ghost town is closer so its only on that place.As you know it is a small town when you go out the Zion National Park.We drove 30 minutes and we're totally lost in the middle of nowhere.U-turn and drive and u-turn that's what we do and I told my husband we had to forget the Grafton Ghost town but my husband is determined to find it. So, we go back and drive slow as no one on the road and try our best to check every street and finally for the fourth time we found the street.It's invisible-GHOST is there.
The only house that is open and the cleaning lady is cleaning- and said to us there will be a movie filmed for couple weeks.
If you asked me is it scary? Well check out if you're around the place.The place is cool with history as you walked around. It was a  good timing  and there are 7 people  included us on that place during our visit.

I forget what is this. I know i'm still in Grafton Ghost town.I guess another house in Grafton

  10. maybe thats why its called Ghost town because it cant be find in the GPS. hehe.. so weird. but u know what that happens to us too, like out GPS is so old that the town change its name, and the GPS cant find the town. its better to look up mapquest coz its more accurate. =)
