CONGRESS, Ariz. — With his
four burros nosed among the sageb
rush between the highway and the
railroad tracks, Bob Sundown, an
American who hasn’t really made it
from yesterday into today, stirred a
campfire under a pot of beans.
“I think I’ll just sit here awhile and
think of women, ” he said.
Sundown, his burros and his four-
wheel wagon — it looks like the vehi
cle that brought Americans west a
century ago and, dangled with the
pots, pans, radios and the other fall
outs of civilization that he trades, it
looks like a moving storage closet —

Montana to Arizona.

a drop in.” He said he drops into
towns like Congress to keep his hand
in society.
“It’s not that I worry about the
state of civilization today. I just don’t
think about it very much.”
Congress thinks a bit about Sun
down, however. He comes through
Congress about only once every
three years. But he is a tourist and
Congress savors tourists almost as
much as it does the gold found occa
sionally up in Weaver Creek.
The Rand McNally Atlas edi
tors occasionally have marked down
Congress, 45 miles northwest of
Phoenix, as a “Ghost Town. And
Congress resents it. Ella Wilson,
who runs the Totem Trading Post,
said, “We are not a ghost town. I am
no ghost.”
Congress hasn’t really got a grip on
itself. Several generations ago the
town buildings centered around the

Weaver Creek gold diggings. That
dried up. So the next buildings be
gan rising on the road leading north
into the hills and Prescott. But Wil
son’s trading post is about the only
habited building there now.
Currently, the activity is a half-
mile up another road, where the post
office, the grocery and the cafe play
where the deer and the antelope
rarely set foot. “Things ain’t been too
lively since we had that drop in the
price of gold around the turn of the
century, ” said Chester Tucker, 75, a
retired forest ranger living in a de
sert without trees.
"Really, the trouble is that every
body who lived about the creek dig
gings have about died out. Oh, I’ve
found me some gold, all right. But
the friends of yesterday are gone, ”
the old ranger said.
“Trouble is it gets up to about 118
degrees and stays there an uncom
fortable time. It was the heat that
died old Ned Perrot. And Vivian
Hale. And Ed Wiseman. And Fred
Frederick.son. And even Mr.
Upton.”
