Jerome Pictures

Jerome Arizona, May 30 Traveling with the Parents


I was talking about the abandoned buildings in the last post, I think they are more unusual here because they have some historical attachment and so they leave them up. I guess people want to see them. And several of these buildings have been turned into private homes.

Before we got to the Jerome State Historical Park, we came upon one of the mining pieces of equipment-the little daisy mine, two views to see how big it is and the sign on it.







Once we got to the state park, we took a picture of the view on the one side of the park and checked out some of the displays that they had outside:

We went in and checked out the history of the mine. It was very interesting to see how people lived during that time as well as the geology of the area and how they made the mines work.

Please go to the post above for more pictures.
