Nowhere residents unanimously agreed last year to enter the modern world by installing traffic lights in town. The two lights were located on each end of town in hopes of luring passersby to come to a complete stop. And visit. On the other hand, no stop signs are permitted on any other street corner in town. The thought is that local residents often need to get to Nowhere fast.
Life Is Good when you stop going in circles.
A TOWN CALLED NOWHERE, ARIZONA
In The Beginning
You see, I and five brothers were raised on an Iowa farm 50 years ago by two incredible parents. But then, I up and moved to Arizona to become a photographer. This profession has been exceptionally good to me. Depending on the workload and the season, I reside in a number of spots: Nowhere, Tempe or Flagstaff, Arizona or Goldfield, Iowa or Puerto Peñasco, Mexico. As a part-time resident of the tiny town called Nowhere, I have a unique perspective on the folks who live and work in a place which time has passed by. And, I'd like to share this fascinating place with you. When I'm somewhere other than Nowhere, I'm likely on assignment either for a corporate client or Arizona Highways magazine. All along, you'll come to know Nowhere, Arizona and its common people with uncommon problems and personal achievements. Early dispatches offer some background into the town itself while newer dispatches will reveal the character of the townsfolk and my photo travels.
