Tombstone and Its Fun

A couple of weeks ago Mom, Aunt Angela, Marti, Cassy, Uncle Chris, Harleigh, and I went to Tombstone! We stayed there for three days. It's a REAL cowboy town from the 1880's. The buildings are still there.  In one place called "THE BIRD CAGE" (which was a Soloon) you can still see the bullet holes! The stuff in there is still in its place and NOT boxed up.  The drapes are torn because they are 129 years old! Even the gambling tables with the cards are still there! Also 26 people died in there! It is said that the place is haunted, so no kids are allowed in after 10:00 p.m!!! We also went to the O.K Corral where the famous shootout happed! For More information go to : http://tombstonebirdcage.com/ and : http://www.tombstonechamber.com/History-Interesting-Facts.
