Below is an e-mail that I recently received from a visitor from Canada, it is not the first time that I have had somebody describe these same feelings about this great little town that I live in.
Good Morning
Good Morning
I am writing from Barrie, Ont Canada, a small city about 60 miles north of Toronto.
Last May we came to Arizona for our first time and fell in love with it. We also rented a Harley and rode 1000 miles in 3 days, Jerome included. I guess I forget to read in the books that Jerome was high in the sky, and I have never been so scared in all my life both going up and down. I was soooo scared I wouldn't get off the bike once we got to town, because I knew I would be walking back down if I did.
We are coming back to Arizona this year and riding a Harley and we will come back to Jerome and I will get off the bike this time. Your town looks interesting and full of nooks and crannies to investigate.
Love your web site.

Hi,
I just stumbled upon your website and the photos and stories brought back so many memories of my childhood. My Grandmother has lived in Jerome since 1942 (Mickey Peterson) - her and my grandfather relocated there from Michigan when the copper mines were booming. I spent every summer of my childhood in Jerome and it was the greatest. I learned to shoot pool in Paul and Jerry's Saloon, watched melodramatic plays in the Spirit Room on some Saturdays, helped my grandma in the Copper Museum where she worked for many years, hiked out to Dick Tracy Rock and many many other things. I am going to tell my family to check out your website - it is nice to see Jerome recognized. thanks much!
