Things really fell into place. Great pictures of Ajo. Love the Federated church doors and the picture of the plaza through the arch. What is a "federated" church anyway? Terrific mural. I love that they painted it on the front of the building and around the door and windows rather than just on the big side as most of them are.

Many of the old houses were snapped up by the people working there and the town was saved. It is nice to see all the work being done to revitalize it.
