    Clarkdale AZ (February 19th, 2020) – Clarkdale residents will welcome the public into their historic homes during the eleventh annual Historic Building and Home Tour on Saturday, April 18 beginning at 9:00 am.

    Founded in 1912 as a company town, Clarkdale was Arizona’s first planned community.  Sturdy brick homes were outfitted with plumbing, electricity and wood floors.  Many original design elements have been lovingly restored as has the charming uptown park.

    Typically, five or more homes and one commercial building are included on the tour.  Transportation between the sites is available, though some visitors may prefer to walk the shaded sidewalks of this historic town.  The tour is not handicap accessible and pets are not allowed. Comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing are encouraged. 

    A classic car will be parked in front of each home on the tour.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
