Young and Retired: Oatman

This sign tells the story of Oatman's burros.

This is one of the places of interest.

Items of interest from a local shop.

This eatery was named for the girl that the town was originally named for. Olive was kidnapped by indians and then rescued by the townfolks.

During the day there were gunfights and bank robberies performed by local performers.

Another interesting shop.

While walking around the town we saw a local cowboy and dance hall queen.

We checked out all the local establishments.

The burros are thru out the town and sometimes in the way.

Michael had bought a tee shirt and this burro decided to try and eat it. We were able to get it away and save the tee shirt.

If a car stopped and the window was down the burros would be looking for carrots.

We bought some kettle corn but had to get by the burro.

Here is a mare and her colt.

We stopped a grizzled miner to pose for a picture. The road behind him is part of the original "Route 66".
