Jerome ghosts

Visited an amazing old frontier mining town turned ghost town turned hippie refuge. Jerome was once considered the rowdiest town in the west due to a copper mining boom and too many men with too little to do in their free time. Incredible history, haunted spots everywhere and the whole town burned at least three times. Chris and I ate at the Haunted Hamburger where the elderly and biker crowd converge. Visited an old mining museum. The whole town is built on the side of a mountain and even the old jail slid down two complete blocks before meeting it's current resting place.
