My wife and daughter were able to get inside after waiting in line for a bit due to COVID. They were impressed with everything. I believe this is the largest selection of kaleidoscopes assemble. They will let you touch and look in each unit. My wife was looking forward to this visit and bought a few small necklaces. Its right along main street in line with other shops.

We spent the afternoon walking through historic Jerome and went down the side street stumbling onto this great little gym. We sat and watched this incredible artist work and fill us with some of his knowledge that you know was only scratching the surface of what he knows ... We are so glad we chose to open those corrugated tin doors and step inside. We purchased four glasses and I put them on the shelf with all the other lovely hand blown glass from across this great country that I have picked up over the years . such a great place can’t wait to go back... will enjoy them with each beverage !

My husband and I stopped in to Vino Zona while staying in Jerome. We REALLY enjoyed our hostess as she tailored our tastings to our taste. She also explained each wine she was pouring and was very knowledgeable about the grapes used. The bottles were a little more expensive than we had anticipated but we did think it was nice that the winemaker had signed them.

The Douglas Mansion has been an eye-catching landmark in Jerome since 1916, when James S. Douglas built it on the hill just above his Little Daisy Mine. This former home is now a museum devoted to the history of the Jerome area and the Douglas family. The museum features photographs, artifacts and minerals in addition to a video presentation and a 3-D model of the town with its underground mines. There are more displays outside along with a picnic area offering a beautiful panoramic view of the Verde Valley.

My wife and I love to visit ghost towns, the remains of old mining camps in California, Montana, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona. One of our favorite stops is Jerome, Arizona, a 45-minute drive from Sedona, across the Verde Valley. Established in 1965, the Jerome State Historic Park has survived budget cuts that closed the park from February 27, 2009, to October 14, 2010. Today, it is open seven days a week thanks to additional funding by Yavapai County, the city of Jerome, the Jerome Historical Society and the Douglas family, which built the Douglas Mansion in 1916 that remains the major attraction in the park. The mansion was built by Jimmy Douglas, the head of a family of mining entrepreneurs, on a hill above his Little Daisy Mine. It features a museum with photographs of the family, the town of Jerome during its mining years, mining artifacts, minerals, antique mining equipment, a video detailing the history of the town and a 3-D reproduction of the town showing the mine shafts underneath the town. The mansion also features a wine cellar, billiard room, marble shower, steam heat and a central vacuum system which was much ahead of its time. Constructed of adobe bricks made on the site, the Douglas Mansion is the largest adobe structure in Arizona. Outside, a picnic area offers a panoramic view of the Verde Valley and Verde River and the Red Rocks of the Sedona/Oak Creek Canyon region. The mansion is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

While in Sedona we were curious about the talk of wine in the area. We started at Jerome and thought we would try it . We got there as they just opened and found out there was just a limited tasting. I had ask about a certain wine and the gentleman, that I hate that I can’t remember his name was nice enough to open a bottle and let us taste The wine is not cheap and u get what u pay for. Was a great start to our Verde Valley tour. Great job Maynard! DaveB
