Jerome, AZ

Leslie surprised me with a weekend 1-year anniversary getaway to an awesome B&B in Jerome AZ. This B&B is called The Surgeons House and it was build by the United Verde Copper Company in 1916 to encourage a Surgeon to move to the old mining town. The current owners garden is slowly taking over the house.

On Sunday we went for a big hike to a fire lookout tower with another excellent view above Prescott, AZ.
