I'm not much of a crypt guy. If there is even a minuscule chance that one of them might be hanging about, you know.
Really impressive from the outside. I'm actually sort of glad in a way that there are 'mysterious' fires of unknown origin in the UK too. I'm sure the owner was safely in Gibraltar at the time...
Thanks for a wonderful start to your trip.

There's heaps of history over here, I suppose we are lucky to have it. Not every old shell has something that relates to significant times in history.
Yeah. Here in the west our history tends way more to places rather than buildings (unless you count the Pueblos). Like the ford here at Yuma. It's 275 river miles to the next place to cross so long as there have been humans around here there has been somebody that wanted that crossing. Long term semi permanent residency.
Yes, other than the native dwellings, our "historic" buildings just can't compare in age to those in the old world. I do like to visit old cemeteries as it can be interesting as to what you read on the gravestones.
We hear lots of songs about the places in the US, I'm humming 'Galveston' now :)
Ahahahahaha Nobody ever has hummed Yuma. Just sayin'
It's way before my time.. but in the deepest part of my brain I knew there was a Yuma song.

Well there you go. First a movie (with an early 2000s remake starring Russell Crowe) AND a song. What more could a guy ask for?
The prison that movie features sits right above the ford over the Colorado River. I don't think it's coincidence....
