Mah 2019/20 trip to the US - fourth leg

After the snowy hell that was northern Arizona, we made our way to Tucson and Sunday we drove to Tombstone. Very touristy, but one of those "been there, done that"-places that I guess one has to see and do in a lifetime. Of course, I had already left the town in disgust once, but this time it all went fairly ok. Took a shit ton of pics, at least.

A reenactment of the famous gunfight at the OK Corrall, where Wyatt Earp, his two brothers and Doc Holliday killed several bandits.

The actual site, with moving dolls and a tape telling the story over and over and over again.

You can always count on me to find the shitter.

The Bird Cage theater is a very interesting building; it is the only one in town that actually dates back to the 1880s.

The bar and the interior is kept as intact as humanly possible.

Lillie Langtry. I've written before about Roy Bean and his obsession with her.

US Christmas celebrations are so fucking tacky.

After Tombstone we pushed on to Bisbee. I found it to be ok but not worthy of the hype. It does have some nice architecture and some houses in strong colors.

In Bisbee, they tend to build where most cities wouldn't dream of permitting a house to be built...

Bear Claws are my Kryptonite.

Lay's Lemon-flavored chips are also Kryptonite.
