Continuing my Southern Arizona Adventure 2024 with a visit to Bisbee Arizona. This is stage 6 of 9.
I had a good parking space and a little time, so I decided to tour the Bisbee Mining & Historical Museum. It is a very professionally curated Museum and connected with the Smithsonian Museum.
The Museum also includes historical items of Phelps Dodge Corporation, including the original boardroom which was in this building. This appears to be a personal safe of James Stuart Douglas. This is a cash register from the National Cash Register Co., Dayton, Ohio, U.S.A.

During the first decade of the 20th century, Douglas, from his position of manager of Phelps Dodge's Moctezuma Copper Company mine and smelter in Sonora, oversaw the establishment of the smelter town of Douglas, Arizona (named for his father, Dr. James Douglas). He also oversaw the construction of a railroad from Douglas to the mines, and organized the Bank of Bisbee and the Bank of Douglas. While in Mexico, Douglas showed his practical bent in earning his nickname of “Rawhide Jimmy” when he ordered the use of rawhide to protect the rollers of an incline from damage by cables. With the onset of World War I, Douglas volunteered his services as a "dollar-a-year" man in supervising the Red Cross stores in France for the entire Western Front. For this, he was decorated by the French government as a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. In 1922, Douglas took over the reorganization of the United Verde Extension mine in Jerome, and after four years struck the bonanza that made the UVX famous. Douglas guided the UVX through labor unrest, the Great Depression, and unstable copper prices to a 20-year production record of $130 million, paying stockholders more than $50 million in dividends.
You Haven’t Seen Bisbee Until You’ve Seen the Bisbee Mining & Historical Museum
With a history deserving of National Landmark status, it’s only fitting that Bisbee’s past be captured and reflected in a museum like no other. The Bisbee Mining & Historical Museum takes you and your family back in time to the days of the Arizona Territory, telling the story of a copper-mining town’s role in the industrialization of America, a history of your grandparents’ generation. An Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the Museum offers an interactive trip back in time for the whole family. The American Industrial revolution not fun to learn about? Think again! Why copper? Find out! The Museum offers the stories of how people reacted to family and social issues through the last 125 years and how their responses helped shape the city, the state, and the nation.

This museum, one of the Smithsonian Institution's only rural branches, documents the history of Bisbee's mining days as well as the town's contribution to the country's industrialization. Located in the town's main plaza, Bisbee Mining & Historical Museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in mining and minerals. It features a remarkable mineral display as well as photographic exhibits, and you can also peruse riveting sections that illuminate the nuances of daily life in the copper mines.

A small, but informative and interesting museum that is a local affiliate of the Smithsonian. Lots of information about Bisbee during its copper mining heyday. DON'T SKIP THE 2nd FLOOR! it's a beautiful mineralogical display of the variety of ores from the mines around Bisbee. - Jake S. Alexandria, VA.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisbee,_Arizona
Bisbee is a city[5] in and the county seat of Cochise County[6] in southeastern Arizona, United States. It is 92 miles (148 km) southeast of Tucson and 11 miles (18 km) north of the Mexican border.
Bisbee was founded as a copper, gold, and silver mining town in 1880, and named in honor of Judge DeWitt Bisbee, one of the financial backers of the adjacent Copper Queen Mine.
Today, the historic city of Bisbee is known as "Old Bisbee" and is home to a thriving downtown cultural scene. This area is noted for its architecture, including Victorian-style houses and an elegant Art Deco county courthouse. Because its plan was laid out to a pedestrian scale before the automobile, Old Bisbee is compact and walkable. The town's hilly terrain is exemplified by the old four-story high school; each floor has a ground-level entrance.
Natural vegetation around Bisbee has a semi-desert appearance with shrubby acacia, oak and the like, along with cacti, grass, ocotillo and yucca. The town itself is much more luxuriant with large trees such as native cypress, sycamore and cottonwood plus the introduced ailanthus and Old World cypresses, cedars and pines. Palms are capable of growing tall, but are not reliably hardy. At least one mature blue spruce may be seen.
Haiku thoughts:
Dusty streets wind tight,
Colors spill from old brick walls,
Echoes of the past.

What would you do with about $4000 in cash?
Btw, this is picture #200 on Flickr. Over 23,000 views. All in the last 3-4 months. Thanks guys!!! :D
Playing around with some macro shots. Really liked this one of a money clip of bills. The tones came out wonderfully and helped set the softness and mood for the photo that I was aiming for. Hope you enjoy

Allied Cash Advance (3,122 square feet)
5108 Nine Mile Road, Richmond, VA
This business opened in spring 2018 and was previously located here; It was built in 1970. While I'm not quite sure who the original tenant was, it appears that restaurants Kelly's Restaurant and later Champs operated out of this space before it became Arby's #633 sometime in the 1980s, which closed in 2011. It became a TitleMax in 2012, which closed in 2017.

Greater Manchester Police supported Key 103’s Cash For Kids Superhero Day (Friday 13 May) last week with a series of fundraising activities across the Force.
Staff raised funds all week by paying to take part in workshops including Zumba, belly-dancing and reiki, holding cake sales and a raffle and donning their superhero costumes for a special dress down day.
The Force also donated an experience for the charity benefiting from Superhero Day ‘When You Wish Upon a Star’. The charity arranges experiences described as ‘wishes’ to children with life-threatening medical conditions and GMP has donated a tour around the Force should any child dream of living the life of an officer for the day.
Greater Manchester Police Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said: “We’re truly honoured to have been able to support such an important day and it was great to see so many of our staff and officers taking part in fundraising across the Force.
“These children and their families are an inspiration and to be able to give them an experience to cherish forever is just a small part of what we can do to help them in their time of need.”
The Force played its part on the day with traffic officers escorting the superhero convoy and members of the Tactical Aid Unit assisting the youngster’s in the rescue of DJ Mike Toolan and the Wish Fairy who had been held captive by Darth Vader in Albert Square.

Listen: HURT
This song was originally by Nine-Inch Nails, but Johnny Cash recorded this and absolutely made it is own. It's powerful, poignant and unforgettable.
The accompanying video to the song is particularly moving and poignant, especially as it shows footage of his beloved wife, June, who passed away a few months prior. And Cash suddenly looks very old and frail.
A masterpiece.
Hurt
(Originally by Nine-Inch Nails)
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

Taken for A Moment in Time, a great photo project from the New York Times on May 2 2010.
On my way back from my love, rain poured down on me on the highway. Isn't that a sign..;-)? I stopped to take this picture at a gaz station at 17:00 pm (the hour all photo's should be taken).
(and - as I was- listen to: Hard- Fi Cash Machine)
For some reason there is a coin cash shortage in the U.S. Many stores when you now use the self checkout only allow you to use a credit card or check. Recent I looked at my pile of coins and felt guilty :-) Yes, I am trying to be better and use coins when paying for stuff.

Cash Cab is a reality show from the cable channel AXN, wherein people who happen to hail it can win some cash by answering some questions given by the driver-host. The time limit is the time until the fares arrive at their destination. They are abruptly dropped off when they answer three questions incorrectly.
The Cash Cab for the Philippine edition is a 2013 Toyota Vios 1.5 G.

I got a new dog this weekend! His name's Cash (after the Man in Black, of course), and he's half German shepherd, and half Alaskan malamute/black lab mix. He's unbelievably awesome and has only peed inside twice! :) He's a phenomenal napper - passes out if you set him down anywhere - and cries if I go too far out of sight... adorable!
Oh - and I was painting this weekend and got into a war, and clearly, I was not the winner. It was actually industrial primer, so I'm still picking it out hair and off of my skin... it was a fun weekend!
