Everybody’s seen Tombstone! If you haven’t – go watch it first, then you’ll understand these photos.
When we got snowed (and government closure’d) out of Guadalupe Mountains National Park, we noticed that Tombstone wasn’t too far out of our intended path west to Tucson so we detoured.
Definitely cool to visit, we watched the movie the night before we went to town so we’d have everything fresh in our minds.
Touristy? Yes. Worth a visit? Definitely!

Not Even Safe In Prison
Judging by this headstone, criminals weren’t safe in prison. Might have been some collusion with local law enforcement on this one…
