So on our first day camping in Benson, AZ we decided to recon Tombstone. We knew it would take more that one visit to see everything we wanted to see. I've been a fan of the history of the town and loved all the movies about Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday and the Cowboys.
The picture above is taken in the Crystal Palace Saloon. We had lunch there and loved the decor.
There are a lot of folks in period costume like the fellow at the visitor center with Martha.
Some of the characters have jobs like the visitor center guy or the gun fighters in the shows, but the fellow above just dresses up and plays the part because it's what he likes to do.
These were the real gun fighters in town. They were the local Arizona Rangers. No six shooters for them. They looked like Glock's to me.
We are going back some more to see the museums and gun fights, but for now, here's a link to the photos I took on the first day. Flickr
