A 17mile journey to Oatman.

We visited Oatman today. It is a old mining town that has since been converted into a tourist attraction. It reminded me of Jackson hole, lots of tourist shops and a gun fight in the street. But by far the most interesting attraction was the Burros. They walked the street mingling with everyone.





Clark Gable and Carole Lombard Honeymooned here. There is a cafe and bar totally wallpapered with money,mostly dollar bills.




                                       
                                            The local residents live in some peculiar homes.



                                           Val and I found a vintage Motorcycle Museum.








                                         We finished the Oatman experience with the turtle circus.






                                                              One last photo as we left.

                                                                  And were done.
