Tombstone

The week of fall break Jeremy came home from Alaska and for those of us tired of looking at the walls of the house (Jeremy would have preferred to stay with his sleep number bed). We took a much needed overnight break to Tombstone...maybe get a taste of the wild wild west. Well Terrilyn didn't appreciate the gun shows of the wild west, but I think they enjoyed walking around and seeing people all dressed up in the period clothing. Jeremy and I found that they had some neat things to see and do but we were disappointed to find that they all had there own price tag attatched and that if we wanted to see and do it all we could have spent a fortune. There was some stuff I would have liked to do but not with the kids like the tour of the mines(we didn't want to hike the trail and worrired that the kids wouldn't go into the tunnel once there. We decided that they would have been better off with a one price admission for everything.

However the kids enjoyed getting dressed up for an old fashioned photo. It was nice to get away and the kids enjoyed the time spent with dad.
