And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Pardon the interruption, but I'm believing this is true. Doesn't anybody proof read news reports (?) and articles anymore? The missing words, misspellings, jumps in sentence construction are amazing - to me at least.

I was born in the late 50s in California. My parents are from AZ. My Grandparents lived in Tucson. My Grandad was a landscaper and after 4 until I was 13 I went summers to work with him. One time we went to Bisbee one time and I remember the big pit that they were pulling copper out.
This is nothing but AI. Having been stationed at Fort Huachuca across the valley, I've been to Bisbee several times. Brewery Gulch/Brewery Avenue is a winding road that doesn't point to the mine. Not to mention all the nonsensical signs like "hottel" and "dry goos" and "salon" and "bistel ret & sloch". Not to mention the little AI logo in the bottom right.
Having said that, Bisbee used to be a really fun place to visit. It was full of old hippies. Not the vicious west-coast hippies we all came to know and loathe. The laid back, fun hippies who ran specialty shops and antique stores.
I have a very good US Marine Vietnam veteran buddy whose last name is Bisbee. I did not know that there was a town in AZ named for his family.
ReplyDeleteDunno if I would have paid the sign writer who painted the hottel sign on the right

DeleteLot of stairs in Bisbee.
ReplyDeleteCheck out Jerome AZ - Bisbee is flatland compared to them. (Up across the valley and visible from Sedona.)
DeleteIn years past my Dad had words to share about the road to Jerome. They weren't complementary.

Huge copper pit and former tourquoise mine. Bisbee tourquoise mining is no more, they filled in the mine.
ReplyDeleteCopper Queen is open to tourists and the Lavender pit is as big as ever.

Grew up in Bisbee!

ReplyDeleteIt may or may not be AI, but it is definitely not Brewery Gulch. The terraced mining op in the background says nope.
