Tombstone, Arizona

Happy Birthday Gary!
Enjoying Tombstone!
Bruce's Tourist Shot
Today we made a trip to Tombstone for a nice relaxing day. It’s about 15 minutes SW of where we are so it was a nice, short drive.  Tombstone has closed off the main street, Allen St, and laid down dirt so that it looked like it did way back when. Most of the buildings were souvenir shops and all had about the same thing. Had a Bank of America so we went in and paid our credit card bill. Had lunch at Big Nose Kate’s Saloon and took some tourists type pictures.  We did a little more walking around then went to find the Post Office to mail Gary’s BD card and a couple of post cards. Had tolerated a bad headache all day which was not getting any better so was ready to go back and see if a little relaxation could get rid of it. Decided to take a couple of shots of liquid pain killer, Tequila, which helped very quickly. We sat outside and enjoyed the sun and warmer weather, about 73 degrees, then fixed supper, watched some TV, worked some Soduko puzzles then to bed.
Update on Dad’s hand, he had to be transferred to another local hospital for surgery - debridement. Not sure why that could not be done at the hospital he is at so called and left a message for a friend that is the QI Director to please check it out – crazy things are happening at what was once a great little hospital.

  1. Tombstone, one of the places that everyone should visit at least once. Pretty cool to walk down the dirt streets and the wooden sidewalks just like the old days.
