Jerome, AZ is a mining town that was founded in 1876. Rich Copper mines helped it grow to a population of 15,000 by the 1920's. By the mid 1950's Jerome was a ghost town. Today Jerome is a tourist and artist community. It's built into the mountains and a great place to walk around. There's lots of interesting art galleries, restaurants and bars.
I ate breakfast at Gisele's. I had biscuits and gravy. Wow, now that's a breakfast that sticks to your ribs! I love eating at small local joints.

So, you were in Jerome and didn't call? Hope you'll pass by this way again on your way home!
