One of our (myself and my better half) favorite things to do is road trip to out of the way places. Once there, I have a limit to how many shops, art galleries and “antique” stores I can handle. So we’ve taken to the back streets to look at the local neighborhoods. My wife is an interior designer and she loves architecture so we are always keeping eye out for interesting homes and buildings and I love cars so I’m always on the lookout for what’s in the backyard.
So that is what led us to this unique discovery outside of Bisbee, Az. The next few blog entries will be what we discovered in the area.
Lowell, Az is nearly a ghost town, surrounded by the mining town of Bisbee. The story goes like this: there is this fellow who had something to do with starting and promoting one of the largest motorcycle events in the world… The Sturgis, South Dakota motorcycle event!!
Some call it a ghost town, but it is not. There is a food co-op, a small cafe and a working motorcycle restoration shop. The rest is really a very cool set up.
Here is the town:
Downtown Lowell, Az
Coming up we’ll explore this town and find some interesting details.
Thanks for reading,
Tim
