Description
A beauty of a Hawk comes in for the kill on that nasty RattleSnake.
This is Chloride Az or what left of it. In reality it has more bulindings than this since 1978.
People have been moving back in from time to time due to the Silver and some gold found in thisd area.
Chloride located under the Cerbat Mt's became a town in 1862. Lots of Silver. It died out 4 times but always seemed to come back. It had it normal amount and crime but mostly hard working miners and very little real interesting crime. No famous shoot outs or famous people lived here.
One interesting story is about A Naval Officer who had a dream he would drown. So he retired from the Navy and moved to chloride. He fell down a well and drowned. The guy that bought his house for tax's turned it into a brothel.

Your distant mountains have a stunning surface. You just keep getting better and better! I love your story, and the old buildings really do look like a ghost town.
