View From The Resort

This is taken from the Prescott Resort overlooking the city last fall. The houses are a part of the VA center which used to be Fort Whipple. The mountain in the distance is Thumb Butte.

Fort Whipple Then And Now

Except for the trees, Officers Row at Fort Whipple looks much as it did when the postcard picture, at the top, was taken in the early 1900's. These beautiful homes were build to house the highest ranking officers and their families. One of the houses is now a museum with the history and artifacts on display, telling of the early days of the fort. The museum is well worth a visit. Tomorrow I will show the inside of the house that is now the museum.
