Tombstone, AT

Wednesday, October 17th, the boys, my mom and I went to Tombstone! And Tombstone, AT is not a typo -- it is Tombstone, Arizona Territory. Unfortunately, Jeff couldn't go - (well, somebody has to work). We watched a comedy gun fight show at Helldorado Town- it was pretty funny. The audience was a little slow with the participation, which made things that much funnier.



We took a ride on a stagecoach and got some extra information about Tombstone. We saw the house that Wyatt Earp lived in. We peeked into the Bird Cage Theater, but we didn't see any ghosts.
We saw the world's largest rosebush - the boys are sitting on the trunk of it in one of the pictures. Of course we went into almost every store.




We saw a huge stuffed buffalo. The picture is a little dark, but you can still see it. After getting our fill of the 1880s, we went to Sierra Vista and stayed at my parents' friends' house. They fed us and gave us beds to sleep in. The next day we toured the town a bit and checked out the post of Ft. Huachuca. It was a good two days! Now we are looking forward to our next adventure!
