When we were staying in Benson, Az we went to Tombstone. It is a very small town down in the desert. The main street has been kept the way it was in the 1800's. They reenact the shootout at the OK Corral everyday. I got a picture of the guys getting ready to do the shootout. There is a stagecoach that you can take a ride in for a tour of the town.
We also stopped at Boothill cemetary. Its a genuine old time cemetary. The graves have new stones over them and readable markers. Most of the "residents" of Boothill were shot, murdered or hanged.
We went to Casa Grande, Az for a few days and visited another couple we worked with this past summer. Didn't like the area -- way too dusty. Lots of signs on the freeway warning of possible blowing dust with zero visibility. Luckily all we saw was lots of dust swirling in the air but it didn't limit visibility.
We have now arrived at Wellton, Az which is our winter destination -- Pioneer Rv Park. It is very nice -- big about 350 sites and we have a nice size lot. There is an outdoor heated pool and spa and lots of activities. The weather is great -- its been in the 70's just right for shorts and t-shirts.
