I live in Globe, about 30 years now. I believe the Teepee use to be part of a bar. Alot of the rod iron around Globe Miami was done by my ex with a bit of my help. I'm glad you did this tour. 😊
My dad was raised in Globe (born in Phoenix). Went to Globe High. My grandfather was the manager at the Valley National Bank (now Chase). Dad now lives in Payson, and my brother and I live in Scottsdale where we were born and raised.
Hi Sheri, Glad to meet others that were born in the Phoenix area. That used to be uncommon, but not so much anymore. Payson is a good place to live during the summer.😄 Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week!
Surprises me a town of over 7,000 according to google, there aren't people around. I see it is over 3,000 ft wonder if a little cooler in summer? Did you see RV parks, campgrounds or boondocking around there?
Hi, I was there just a little after it opened. But yeah.. I was surprised it wasn't busy. It's probably 10 deg cooler than Phoenix but about 30 min West on the 60 there are a couple decent campgrounds a little higher up. Timber camp comes to mind. Hope this helps. Have a great day!
When Roosevelt dam was built some Italian stone masons were brought here. I think the church and some houses in Globe were worked on by the men who worked on the dam.
Hi Jill, It was my attempt at humor about how some people get offended by those words these days. In all honesty I thought I edited that part out to stay clear of politics. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Hi Fred, The old jail is supposedly haunted from some of the inmates that died trying to escape. Hope that helps. Thanks for sharing and have a good week!
I went to Junior High in Globe aka glob in 1970s my father worked for Inspiration Consolidated Copper Company. We had a place next to Globe Junior High called Tiger's Den, was on the corner sold food & candy hang out for kids had a jukebox. Globe was an awful place police were evil! Best thing & only good thing that saved kids was riding dirt bikes! We moved to Bremerton WA, a navy town PSNS ship yards where my father worked as an electrition. I dont miss Globe at all my sister & I visited in 1996 when I worked in Scottsdale AZ at Scottsdale Memorial Hospital a surgical assistant aka surgical technologist went to college in Seattle WA. AZ a nice place to visit November to May. It's a dry heat LOL 😆, better than Texas weather! Best dirt bike riding in AZ & WA states to bad these states are woke & flooded with people from Southern California 😳. Nice museum in this video. Vist Scottsdale & go hiking at Camelback mountain. You must be a navy vet seabee as we said in high school in WA state "squid ho & the way we go". Not funny 😁 in modern commie USA iam resisting commie America! Apache tears wow 👌 nice museum 5 bucks a good deal. I like miniature city old AZ. 😊 All the copper mining in Globe area & surrounding towns not good for peoples health. Cactus are beautiful avoid on trails on motorcycles.look & dont touch. Nice video thank you.
