264 Oatman, Arizona: Donkeys in the Streets

Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure, 264 While on my way to the Grand Canyon last May, I stopped off for a bit to explore Oatman, historic old mining town that has become an epic OldeTyme tourist trap popular with tourists and bikers. Fun fact: Oatman was named after Olive Oatman, a pioneer girl who was kidnapped by Native Americans and ended up living with them for 5 years, during which time they tattooed her face. When she went back to white society, her story was a real sensation and they named this town in her honor. If you like gift shops, souvenir stands, saloons, burger joints, patriotic tshirts, 2nd amendment tshirts and flags with a little dash of history sprinkled over it will love Oatman wonderhussy, wonder hussy, oatman arizona, oatman ghost town, arizona ghost town, wild west ghost town, route 66, route 66 kitsch, roadside tourist trap
