A little more from Goldfield

We  thought  that We'd give the  mules  a  rest  one day so, we  decided to delve into the  little tourist  town of  Goldfield a bit  further. We took the  train ride with my favorite conductor and Facebook friend, "Hurryup" at the controls. He gave  a  fine little tour of the  surronding goldmines and history of the  area.
The train ride lasts about  20 minutes  and is worth it just  to gain knowledge of what surrounds  you.
of course  the  scenery  ain't too shabby either. That's Superstition mountain in the  backdrop.

nice  cholla cactus

this  is what  replaced many  mules
lots of yard art around these  parts!

It's a  good  ride and  if you take  the time; I'm sure  that  you'll enjoy it! We did!
