Tombstone and Bisbee






Cameron, Mike and Wyatt, at Tombstone

Onto Tombstone ( of movie fame)which is just before Tucson, we stop off to do the cowboy
 thing and look at this wild west town, boot hill, all the outlaws and that sort of thing.
We had dinner in a saloon called “Big Nose Kates” who was the girlfriend of
Doc Holliday one of the men who was involved in the OK Corral gunfight killings
( 3 men dead). While at the saloon we met a lovely couple Cameron, Mike and
their son Wyatt, named after Wyatt Earp who was also involved in the above murders.
Hi guys hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay.

Lee dressing for the part of Wyatt Earp


We also went to Bisbee which is a more authentic town,
( most of Tombstone has been recreated) lots of crazys there,
was one of the biggest mining towns in its day when the
mine closed down in the mid 70's a lot of the
realestate was abandoned, hippies moved in and squatted
and some are stillthere today. Got some great sunsets later that
day as well, apparently it has something to do with being
in the desert and the how flat it is or some reflection, will have to
Google it to find out which is correct


This vehicle obviously belongs to a devoted Hillary Clinton campaginer
(note the cute house in the background)

One of the wild looking places inhabited by squatters from the 70's.

Some of the hundreds of great sunset photos we took.
