More Wild West Adventures

The coffee shop at the Gadsden. I think Flo was ready to come over and take our orders for some glazed donuts & coffee.



This has definitely been a week of being introduced to the "wild west" part of living in this area. I love it! 

Yesterday, I met the lovely Julia in Douglas at the Gadsden Hotel. She brought along her two young un's, Daisy & Hank. It was quite the adventure wandering the halls and giant lobby of such a grand hotel. Italian Marble columns, gold leaf decorated carvings, restaurants, saloon, beauty shop, and a vintage front desk. Oh, and the 46 ft. of authentic Tiffany stained glass desert scene as the window...amazing!

I took several photos, but will just post the most cool here. I'm still editing, and planning a return trip soon!

My Daughter Visits Bisbee!!!

Image
Good morning Bisbee! It looks like it's going to be yet another beautiful day here in Tiny Town (I didn't coin the term...I have our friend Juliette Beaumont, the bartender at Elmo's to thank).  I've got the wonderful "hurry up & wait" task of needing to wait for a visit from the cable company to deal with the inconsistent internet connection I have. But, the next few hours are mine alone. Nice. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to picking up my lovely daughter, Mira, at the airport in Tucson this evening and having her here in Bisbee for a week! I moved here last June on the same day she left for her travels in India, Cambodia and Thailand this past summer. She's a world traveler, and it will be very cool to show her my new home. I'm hoping to introduce her to as many of my new Bisbee friends as possible. We'll be seeing you around...

Emily Decks Out for the Sandman Show at Elmo's

Image
Yesterday afternoon a bunch of us went down to St. Elmo's in Brewery Gulch to hear our friend Sandman perform his unique blend of Cowboy Rap and Poetry (you've got to hear it to understand - check out his website ).  One of our own - Emily - was sporting quite the amazing outfit...which used to belong to Sammy Davis, Jr.! She says a friend of hers back in New Jersey passed it along to her after a photo shoot with said Sammy.  Now, I think that's just way cool!
