I’m your Huckleberry
OK so we flew out to AZ to visit our second family the Sackriders. I don’t know much about the desert but I knew there was one place in AZ that I had to visit. The site of my favorite movie, Tombstone.
We drove four hours there to visit and unfortunately we didn’t have enough time. I didn’t know what to expect but it was very cool. Most of the original buildings burnt down in one of the three major fires in the city but I stood in the O.K. Corral. I stood where the shoot out took place and watched a reenactment take place. We walked down the streets and saw the Oriental and the Crystal Palace and I stood in the Birdcage Theater, one of the only original building in town. The place where Doc Holiday and Johnny Ringo shot at each other and missed. I saw the bullet holes in the wall. Unfortunately it was too late to take the tour but we did get to hear the story of Lester Moore.
Here lies Lester Moore
4 slugs from a 44
No Less No Moore
Any way it was a blast, I need to go watch the movie now…
