two guns

The ruins of Two Guns, Arizona; a Route 66 roadside attraction built in 1924 by Henry “Two Gun” Miller and Earl Cundiff. Two Guns was a general store, gas station, zoo, curio shop, motel and camp. The two proprietors reportedly fought often, and in 1934 Mr. Miller shot and killed Mr. Cundiff. Two Guns remained open until 1948, and then was re-opened in the 1960s, only to close for good in 1971.

    Ghosts, ghost towns. Going up the hill all that is seen is what is above. Yet ghost towns are the early signs of a deserted rural environment as everyone citys. In maybe our lifetimes the world population may peak. What’s on the other side?
    Wonder what suburban ghost towns will look like?
