About Us

We are a family of 5 that moved from California to Arizona about 8 years ago. We love it here! We love to watch movies, enjoy the great outdoors when it's not blazing hot, play sports, hike, ride bikes and spend time together! Life is awesome and we wish the same to all of you!

Goldfield Ghost Town

This past weekend, Labor Day, we decided to go exploring. Conlan decided he wanted to go looking for ghosts. He has been watching the show "The Othersiders". It is about 5 teenagers who go ghost hunting with all of the high tech equipment. Mom has to admit that she enjoys the show too! We decided to start with the local ghost town, Goldfield. It is a fun thing to do on a liesurely afternoon. We went searching around town, trying to coax the ghosts to get into our pictures, no luck. One of the stores we talked to a local gal who had heard lots of stories and even had a picture of the local ghost. We also found a book about local ghosts and their stories. We went to dinner and read through some of them. Conlan thought they were pretty scary. We have a feeling our ghost hunting days are over, but it was a fun afternoon!






Conlan cooling off at the water tower. It is still blazing hot out here!










One of the many reasons we love living out here. This is a view of the Superstition Mountains from Goldfield. There are a lot of legends in them thar hills surrounding the Lost Dutchman Mine.








Trying to get the ghost to come out, come out wherever you are! No luck.








It was a beautiful day!
