We drove to Oatman, AZ today. Had a real nice time. It is about 40 minutes from Bullhead City, AZ

This was an old mining town. They have all kinds of stores, ranging from arts & craft, clothing, knives, and old antique stores. Just kind of fun walking around town. They do a comedy gun fight in the center of town too.

The "wild" burros that wander into town are decendences of the burros that the miner left here when they gave up the mining business. These burros that come to town knows that they will probably get carrots to eat. There is places that sell carrots for feeding them. No one takes care of these burros, they just kind of come and goes as they please.

We left there and drove out the long way back to Bullhead City. We seen some very curvy roads and the wild burros out there. Beautiful area of mountains and valleys.
