Summary

Description

This is the first in a series of shots I will be posting from our trip to Bisbee, Arizona. It was a Christmas gift from our kids--a weekend trip away, by ourselves. It was their first time alone that long but they did great, and so did we!

Bisbee is an old Arizona mountain town built into the hills. It has your requisite art and antique shops, but it's definitely different from your (e.g.) Colorado ski town, or even Arizona's Jerome. In Jerome, the hippies listen to Phillip Glass. In Bisbee, they listen to Bob Marley and I imagine have read "On the Road" within the last 3 years.

This is actually an overview of what is called "Old Bisbee", and you can see pretty much all of it from the "Sleepy Dog House"--a wonderful B&B that I would highly recommend, which has the most wonderful kitsch decorating we have ever seen. I'll be showing some of it in later shots.

I imagine we're 80 or 100 feet over the town center. In the very background you can barely make out a mountain, which is right where the Queen Mine is and the highway. If you look closely--I uploaded the big size so you can view large--you can see a lot of interesting detail.
