Phoenix, AZ

Though not necessarily just a sign, Jackass Flats in Phoenix is worth the inclusion on the site. Check out this roadside treasure that's still a roadside stopover in the middle of nowhere.

(Below) On the road between Phoenix and Tucson, near Picacho Park, there is a roadside attraction, Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich Farm. For the price of a cup of bird food, $ 2, you can feed the hundreds of birds. They sell souvenirs made from the feathers and the eggs.

The Thing Trading Post
Near Willcox, AZ

Traveling the I-10 heading east out of Tucson, you will notice a series of roadside billboard signs advertising The Thing. Hmm, what is it? What exactly is this "mystery of the desert?"

Well, it's a trading post for starters. Word is that The Thing has been in Arizona since the 1960's. It may be worth the 50 cents or buck or whatever it was to find out. 03-05

Update 02/07 : Here are more photos from The Thing in Arizona. Many thanks to Gorb70 for update. 02-07
