I am sitting in Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix waiting for my fight home.
On the way here I visited Jerome which was once the largest ghost town in the state but has now become an artists' community, full of cafes and gift shops.
The graveyard was the most interesting part of the town, although it took a bit of finding - the visitor centre didn't know where it was but a helpful local showed me the way.
When I got there, a large groups of locals were playing pétanque in the graveyard, which seems a bit odd. The told me they play every Sunday after a drink in the bar.
I presume the graves surrounded by iron railings would be for the important people, and the average miner's grave isn't marked.
