Tombstone
From my childhood days of watching television westerns, the town of Tombstone has a special place in my imagination. I was pleased to discover it's a real place with a real cemetery occupied by former gunslingers and their victims. This section of the trip also took us down to Bisbee, a former mining town, now a refuge for artisans and not unlike my home town of Nelson, BC. Strange to travel so far and feel like you're at home. . . .
Tombstone Cemetery
Anyone remember the Star Trek episode where the crew was forced to re-enact the gun fight at the
OK Corral? That was Tombstone.
Bisbee (Arizona's Nelson)
Mobile Border Patrol (to see if we have any "illegals" in our vehicle).
