Ghost town with stubborn residents in Jeffrey City Wyoming
Jeffrey City, once a uranium boom town, faded to a ghost town after mines closed. Today about three dozen iconoclasts stay, keeping the town alive with quirky acts, a small cafe, and a potter named the Mad Potter. They value quiet, preserve memories, and resist a comeback amid an active new mine talk.
