The weekend before Spring Break we wanted to get out of the house and enjoy the great weather after weeks of rain. So we went to Oatman, a little ghost town where "wild" burros roam free and visitors can buy food from every store to feed said burros.
The burros are about as tame as can be. Brendon's look of excitement sums up his feelings about the town, but Suzanna and Jonathan were a little more into the experience. Tyler was fine with everything as long as the burros stayed far away.
We caught the end of a staged gunfight, but sadly we didn't come on the right weekend to witness such exciting events like the bed race, egg fry or burro biscuit toss. Hmmm....
My favorite part of the trip was when we stopped at Target in Bullhead on our way home. Shopping heaven compared to Kingman!!

I've never heard of that place either--where is it? I love the "wild" burros. funny.
Burro Heaven.. ha ha I thought you were eating somewhere weird! :)
Also, now you know how I feel about shopping!
Thanks for updating!
Oatman is definitely an unknown--except here!! Everyone was always asking us if we'd been. It just shows how little there is to do here =)
Hillari--it's somewhere between here and Bullhead City--so out of your way when you head towards your family. I don't think I'd recommend going out of your way =)
hahaha!!! you know how it feels not to have a target close to you just like my wife feels it too!!!
