3rd row watched one of the most exciting pickleball matches ever as J W Johnson and Jorja Johnson defeated Anna Lea Waters and Ben JohnsJerome, AZ. Serendipitous Airbnb stay at the mayor’s house which looked out east over the valley. Jerome is an fascinating old mining town re-discovered by hippies and artists and restaurateurs. 15,000 people lived here until 1929 and after the mine closed in 1953 the population dwindled to 100 in the Sixties. Now they claim over a million visitors annually. Remarkable!
