Cowtown Keelocko, Arizona

Camera Club Field Trip to Cowtown Keelocko

Return to Arizona Index
Over seventy members of the Green Valley Camera Club carpooled to drive the long distance out Aho road, west of Tucson, Arizona, to visit Ed Keelocko and his small town on a large ranch. After turning onto the dirt road, it was many more miles before reaching his ranch, built in the 1950s. He built it by hand with materials he acquired and transported in a pickup truck. Ed is an African-American who had red hair and green eyes. He served in Korea and on returning set up ranching. When others wouldn't accept him, he built his own town and sold his cattle from there.

Ed joined us in his Blue Dog Saloon, and after we watched the video about his life, (see it below) he talked to us for a while. He is a very interesting fellow. We enjoyed walking around and taking photographs of the buildings and livestock before heading down more dirt roads to Fred's Arena Steakhouse to enjoy delicious sausage burgers for lunch.
