One more wheel
by matcrazy1
This is a wheel of a carriage used to transport prisoners to/from Yuma Territorial Prison. Doesn't it look a little more modern than the previous one? Painted in yellow? Hmm... it doesn't look so old.
Pools
by matcrazy1
Most accommodations (if not all) offer at least one outdoor pool. My outdoor pool in Yuma Inn Motel was not crowded when I was there in April hehe.
More on activities in Yuma including golf, tennis, fishing, boating, hunting, hiking, camping, swimming, birding or sightseeing: click here.
Shorts for swimming recommended. Any public nudity forbidden - no topless (for females) :-(.
Colorado River
by matcrazy1
The source of the Colorado River is Grand Lake, Colorado, in Rocky Mountain National Park. It flows from Colorado via Utah, then it flows southwards between California and Arizona to Yuma when it enters Mexico. You can see the river just by Yuma Territorial Prison Historic Park.
Mercantile Store
by Basaic
Castle Dome had a Mercantile Store that sold all the general needs to the populace. There were also rooms off to the side for a doctor, a dentist and the assayer (a guy who analyzed the silver ore and assigned a value to it).
