A 19th century mining town, Jerome has re-created itself as a tourist spot west of Sedona, at an elevation just above 5000 feet. Many historical details have survived, or partly survived.

Downtown is a mix of old and newer, with art studios, boutiques and restaurants lining the steep streets. Unexpected details every where you turn.

Walking back to our car I was overcome by the sweet smell of ripe peaches permeating the air. One more thing I wasn’t expecting.
