Since Tombstone was only a 30 min. drive from our KOA, we decided to go back this morning and see Boot Hill, the visitors center and catch a glimpse of the shoot-out site at the OK Corral! We also saw the house that Wyatt Earp actually lived in. We could have spent the rest of the day seeing everything, but we had to get on the road. It's always good to leave something for next time!
Todays drive was about 6 hours, and we didn't see too much along the way. We did see a couple more border patrol checkpoints and passed through a little bit of Tucson. This is where we had lunch. Well, sort of - we had McDonalds in the RV! Finally, we came into Yuma about 15 minutes before the Territorial Prison closed :( Our camp is only about 20 minutes away from the prison, so we decided that we would get up early and have breakfast at Cracker Barrel, then see the prison first thing in the morning on our way to the highway.
We had a great dinner at Chretin's Mexican Restaurant in Yuma! It seems that we can't get enough of the authentic cuisine!! Then we drove back to the KOA that was located far out in the middle of farm land! Only a few miles from the CA border and there are huge dairy farms, and cotton fields! This is kind of cool because until Yuma, all we saw was desert and scrub.
