On 3/17/2014 we pulled into Thousand Trails / Valley Vista RV resort in Benson Az. From this point we traveled to Tombstone where we felt like the typical tourist. We watched the gun fights and looked in the many stores that were for our offering.
excert from The Tombstone Epitaph Oct. 1881:
O. K. CORRAL GUNFIGHT
History recorded:
On Oct. 27, 1881. The tombstone Epitaph reported that a gun fight had taken place in a vacant lot behind the O' K. Corral. Wyatt, Virgil and Morgan Earp and Doc Holliday had confronted the Clantons and McLaurys. Three men had been killed and three wonded in the 30-second Gunfight at the Corral. The Epitaph recounted the details of the evend and the legal inquiry that followed. Were Wyatt and Doc guilty of murder?
We don't buy many souveniors since we live in our RV. I do collect patches that I sew on fabric to remind me of the places we have visited.
Also we drove to a town called Bisbee, a Mining town from the past with a very good museum.
