The Town Too Tough Too Die

So, I decide that I wanted to visit Tombstone && do a tourist thing there. I've never been there to just see the sights && I wondered what all the fuss was about. Why was this town the town too tough to die? A short drive from Benson later, there we were, me && my ever faithful sidekick (Chebo), pulling into Boothill Graveyard. If you've been paying attention, chebo, lisi, && I were here before for a ghost tour, however we did not go inside the actual graveyard we just looked over the fence. LAME right? Well we go inside the building && it's free to get in but it's a $2 donation to get a pamphlet that tells all they know about all the graves && the people buried there. I would love to see && experience the wild west before the west was won, if even for a day or two. So I found this picture taken in the 1920s, I believe, of the graveyard. Still now from the time period I would've liked but close enough. It still holds that charm.

Today it looks pretty similar, but head stones are cramed all over the place with clear walking paths between rows. And also the background of this old pic is missing the modern developments of our day: houses && cars driving by on the freeway.
From my trip there, I picked one picture to grace you with, it is of one the most famous headstone sayings:

Right next to the graveyard is a souvenior shop. I found an awesome purse that was "flawed" but only had one tiny little spot I couldn't see till the clerk pionted it out. I got the purse half off!! you will see a pic of me sportin it later on.
Our next stop was Allen Street. Here's how it looked it the 1880s: Awesome isn't it? We first stopped at Six Gun City, a bar && grill we have stopped at to visit our man Rockin Ron for Karaoke. We had lunch && watched a gun show!

We then walked over to the Bird Cage Theatre. Back in the day it was a very popular spot of entertainment. It's now a museum that is reportedly a hot spot for paranormal activity. So I was excited to visit.This place was jam-packed with way neat stuff. My fave by far though, was the horse-drawn herze obviously without the horse! Here's the ad they used back then:lol. Here's chebo with it:

Here's myself && my new purse with it:

I had a great time in the town too tough to die, && now I know why it's still around. Cuz of fools like me that have an interest in the old west! We didn't get to see everything we set out to see, so hopefully in the future, there is another trip to Tombstone in store for us!

A one-eyed, peg-leged, Halloween!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Melissa & I carved pumpkins one saturday afternoon. There was stars on hers, and I did a haunted castle to match the haunted castle cookie we also made. (well it came in a kit but we decorated it!) lol it looks ridiculus because it was so hot at the house that before the frosting could harden, it melted, giving our castle cookie a droopy effect. Anywayz, our pumpkins looked great, until the javalinas came and ate them a few days later!

This halloween we ventured out as pirates!
... and so did dobby!gotta love this pic, look at chebo's face.. so cute!haha, the wolfmen...

We decided to celebrate his birthday in a way one would celebrate a human's birthday, we through him a humble party! I did this cute little set-up by the back porch of my house. I made hot dogs covered in bacon, (cuz dobby is part weiner dog!) served with baked beans. In attendence were Dobby, myself, Mom, Chebo, Lisi, Roche, Kathrine & her dog Angel. Our friends Issac and Alicia also stopped by to wish dobby a happy birthday! Here's Dobby in his special birthday puppy shirt we made just for him!For desert, I made a Jerky cake with yogurt frosting and jerky sprinkles. The dogs loved it!
We may not celebrate his birthday next year, but this year I made sure he had fun! LOL. Call me crazy... cuz I am!
