Supervisor Horvath and State Sen Ben Allen join Consul General Paul Rennie to discuss the UK reinsurance scheme and lessons applicable to LA fire rebuilding, on November 5th, 2025.
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.

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.

Dusty streets wind tight,
Colors spill from old brick walls,
Echoes of the past.

Help Wanted: Tunnel supervisor for the East Portal of the Moffat Tunnel. Will provide housing, short walk to work. Negotiable terms. Transportation available. D&RGW used to operate the tunnel and the big mines near Somerset and Paonia on the Western Slope even though it was D&SL (Denver & Salt Lake) that inspired the tunnel after years of winter snow fighting campaigns over the Hill Division on the Continental Divide. Denverites were always envious of Southern Wyoming and wanted their own transcontinental route to fuel its growth. D&SL operated the big standard gauge Mallets over to the Western Slope and ran many trains over the divide. This shack was a curiosity probably built after the tunnel. It sat in a meadow to the north side of the portal and it caught my eye. The long walk starts to turn toward the portal so I figure it was probably used for the crew that operated the portal in the early days before total automation and all the Magic Underwear shipments to Salt Lake blessed by the Holy Ghost. The crew probably would be ill advised to tip a few before heading home! I wonder how soggy the meadow got in the past; this year would a difficult one to compare to the past years.
After our foray into the @844 excursion leaving Terry Bison Ranch and over at the UP yards, I didn't expect more RR pix any time soon, but: Who ever figures on Eddie popping up like a Whack-a-Mole? Just when you thought it was safe for your children to play outside! Eddie decided to take a shot at the changing aspen up the Rollinsville route to the tunnel and wanted me to tag along as Sluggo's equipment and brains bearer. It's a hard job but someone's gotta do it. As it worked out, there was quite a bit of activity at the eastern portal of the tunnel. I need to get another tour of the tunnel facilities. The light died with this curiosity shot. I'd like a better opportunity sometime. The same should go for the Anthrax train that had to wait for the coal train to pass, It often loses the block because it refuses to stick to it's schedule. Even the trailer train makes the Denver to Glenwood Springs run an hour faster.
Eddie called me this morning way early to tell me he had a photo excursion in his head and for all who know him, he can't fit anything else in his head. I have no idea why he HAS to roust me at 4:30 in the morning. I could just as easily studied my eyelids for a few hours more. I knew he was trying to kill his competition off, ME! I grabbed my camera and pietrod and met him by the street. He wasn't letting any grass grow under his feet. After I guided him through Boulder and got him onto Canyon Boulevard while I was asleep, he announced he really wanted to get up Boulder Canyon. I had to reiterate that he should keep heading up Canyon Boulevard! Sheesh... Did I say Eddie? He claimed he was heading to Boulder Falls and then to Nederland. We were on the way to the hills of Boulder County, Eddie decided to stop at Nederland, a hippie and biker community that used to be in a silver and tungsten mining area. Some old equipment, just posted, sits outside at the Nederland mining museum. Afterward, we turned south on the Peak-to-Peak Highway and Rollinsville.
I realize that I happen to live in a fortuitous spot and will wait until the next trek or steam up to provide more great shooting.opportunities. I am about ready to look at the new round of images on my camera card.
Darren Smith is the fishmonger on and market supervisor of the twice weekly Framlingham market on the Market Hill. He's not really this scary.
Fes is probably most famous for its massive leather tanneries. The classic images of rows upon rows of dye vats with workers walking around the edges are all over the internet. Unfortunately, we arrived during a period of construction and the colours weren't available. On the plus side, it also meant the equally famous stink wasn't quite as strong. Here, a supervisor watches a younger worker in the tanning vats.
Tigger thinks its her job to supervise us when we eat dinner. Along with the other four cats, that is...

Some quick photos of the box, I like how the illustrations show him with the lantern and have the antlers motif as decoration. All that's needed is a lil' Sven!
