Another beautiful (hot) day. We racked up another 220 miles. We left Silver City, NM @ 9:00 this morning and headed for the Shakespeare Ghost Town via Route 90. Nice little 2-lane winding through the mountains and then the desert. Not much traffic either � just the way we like it. We actually found the ghost town (after traveling down a dirt road for a few miles) but much to our dismay we discovered it was not open for visiting. Although this place is listed on all the maps as a place to go see, you do not find out until you�re at the gate that tours are only given the 2nd Sunday of each month! What a drag. So � we stopped at a diner to cool off and grab some breakfast and then off towards Tombstone, AZ. We took a very quick little detour into Mexico so now this is an international trip. Can you dig it? We literally crossed the border into Mexico, took a few pictures and then came back into the USA. We made our way to Tombstone and hung out there for a while. It was very cool. The main street still looks like it did when the shoot out went down at the OK Coral. We spent a few hours checking things out and shopping then headed to Ft. Huachuca to have dinner with our dear friend and former Md. Member, Turtle. We had a good time catching up with him and although it�s tempting to keep him Jake � I�m gonna let you keep him.
That�s all for today � time to catch some sleep and make ready for the trip to Flagstaff, AZ tomorrow.
