London Bridge

We’re staying a couple of blocks away from the London Bridge tonight. We were in Kingman, AZ, yesterday checking out all old Historic Route 66 there. We drove south to Lake Havasu City, AZ, today, to visit the tourist attractions here before heading back into California tomorrow. Click on the image to enlarge.

Vulture Gold Mine

We visited the Vulture Gold Mine near Wickenburg, AZ today. Once one of the best producing mines in Arizona, it lies as a relic of those days in the beautiful hills near Vulture Peak. This is the building where the bars of gold and silver were stored before shipping to town. Click on the image to enlarge.
