Doors

I like those door pulls on this door on the old Stanton Opera House, which I featured yesterday.
Below is another picture of the building from different angle.

Opera House

This is a wider view of the old Stanton Opera House. I featured these windows in my post yesterday. This building is now used as a recreation hall.

Stanton Old Town

To get to the old buildings in Stanton you have to enter the RV park camp ground and go to the office to sign a liability release. Then you are free to wander around the old buildings and take pictures. This is the sign at the entrance to the park.

This is one of only a few older houses that we saw in the Stanton area.

Rolling Cabin

It's unique, it has solar power and it's for sale! This is one of the first things we saw as we came into the tiny town of Stanton. The middle window is the one I did the close up of in my post yesterday.

Wednesday Window....Spicy

Although it looks a bit odd in this picture, this really is a window. 
You will have to check back tomorrow to find out what kind of place this window is in.

Hotel Stanton

Continuing our visit to Stanton, this building is close to the office building that I featured in Friday's post. Now used as a library and game room for the RV park, this building has a sign that identifies it as the old hotel.

Stanton


Only a few miles from the Octave Mine that I featured yesterday is the tiny town of Stanton, Arizona. Once a bustling gold mining town, the old buildings are now surrounded by an RV park. If you go into the office and sign a release, you can wander around the old buildings and take pictures. 


A few people asked how the Octave mine got it's name. The only thing I found on the name said that there were eight partners who owned the mine which is why they named it Octave.
