Ass, Gas or Cash

Nobody rides for free! I had a few requests for additional shots from the recent bike trip, and the donkey was popular, so here's the town, swelling with donkeys....and a few bikes.

Great shot, Ron. Where was this taken? Welcome back.

[Peter]

Lovely shot full of interesting fine details, noticed the old sign where on Route 66 was this taken Ron, traveled some of Route 66 ending at the sign on the pier in Santa Monica in 2011, happy days:)

[Rachel]

This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing another shot.

[Anita Campbell]

Fun shot.. Yes, where was this taken?

[Poppo Livy]

[summerfield]

[Denise Wood]

Amazing Ron :)

[Karen H]

Wow that is a lot of, well ...whatever we are calling them.
Love the guy taking the phone pic

[Osia Strasner]

Love the motley crew in this shot!! What a scene! I am afraid I will have to go visit that place!

[Ron]

@thirdjoe @aglennc This is Oatman, AZ, an former mining town that's now a tourist ghost town. I think there are more burros than people.

[Ron]

@pcoulson That's a pretty good eye you have there, Peter. Yes, this is Route 66, Oatman, AZ. In fact coming in we were following a guy in an old '54 Buick, recreating the whole Route 66 experience. His car even died for added realism! Thanks for the kind comments.

[Ron]

@888rachel Thanks Rachel - a different version of your street photography efforts. ;-)

[Ron]

@terryliv Thanks Terry! Amazing because I have no flowers in the picture or amazing because bikers go really well with donkeys?

[Ron]

@summerfield Asses, donkeys, burros - I laid it all out in my reply to Osia's question regarding burros vs. donkeys in yesterday's comments. Turns out they're all asses - especially the ones on the Harleys.

[Ron]

@gilbertwood Thanks, Denise. Must be something about you Aussies that love the burros - Poppo used the same term!

[Ron]

@tigerdreamer Ha, go ahead and say it, Karen! :-) Thanks for the comment.

[Ron]

@panthora You MUST visit here, Osia. I'd love to see your creativity at work in this town!

[Poppo Livy]

@stray_shooter No that the donkeys/burros/asses allowed the bikers into the town. And I didn't say burros.

[Anita Campbell]

I should have known -- Oatman, AZ. We'got to get there one of these days. Been about everywhere else in AZ. over the years.......
