Tombstone cont.

I remembered a couple other things that i forgot to tell you about my trip to tombstone.  One was the boothill cemetery we went to on the way out of town.  This was the original cemterey in town and then kind of went to ruins when they started up a new one.  Some people in town got together and decided to do their best to restore it and even though it's small you can feel a whole lot of ghosts and history in there.  They ask for a two dollar donation and you get a pamphlet that tells you where people are buried and if they know, about how they died.  It was getting late so we didn't spend too much time there, but i definitely could've spent quite awhile there looking around.  The other fun thing i did while in town was to get one of those old time photos done.  I did one picture by myself and one with my aunt, and i have to say they turned out pretty cute.  I told my aunt that she made a very pretty floosie =)  And i'm sure she appreciates me telling you all that, but we had a really good time dressing up and getting our picture taken.   Also, if you buy your ticket to the OK Corral gunfight that also includes admission to their historama museum/show and you can go to the tombstone epitaph, and get printouts of the newpaper from when the shooting happened, so you get a lot with that ticket.  If you ever get the chance, definitely hit up tombstone and maybe stay for a day or two so you can get the whole feel of the place, it's worth it.
