Return to Tombstone

We spent several hours at Tombstone. We visited back in 2012 (1, 2, 3, 4). This time we did a combination of new places and repeats. The street is always interesting with the red stagecoach along with actors playing different Tombstone characters.

We enjoyed lunch at Crystal Palace. It was funny to see the actors having lunch at the bar at the same time the SyFy channel was playing on TV.
Since I love cemeteries, we had to revisit Boothill. These are the guys killed at OK Corral.

This time we visited Bird Cage Theatre. We didn’t see any ghosts (it’s been on many haunted shows) but we got to see bullet holes in the walls. There are all kinds of items like the Faro table where Doc Holliday and Johnny Ringo fought. We recently watched our DVD of the movie “Tombstone” so stuff like the stage and pictures of the Earps was pretty cool.

On the way back, we stopped at the ghost town of Fairbank. It was more “ghost” than we expected. There were only a few buildings left.
