Day 7 - Tombstone and then Head Home

We are stating our trip back home.  I am trying not to be too sad about the trip almost being over.  We had such a great time each day and made some memories as a family.  I was hesitant at first to make this trip mainly because of the time in the truck and trying to keep Collin entertained.  He did great during the trip and I know he had a great time each day.  He was so wired at night and so excited about the day that he had a hard time falling asleep...but when he did, he fell asleep hard!

Before heading back, I wanted us to stop by Tombstone to see the cemetery and downtown that I remember seeing as a kid on a family road trip.  We stayed for about an hour.  The best part was walking through the cemetery and reading how people died.  Collin thought it was spooky at first but then was interested in how the people died.

HUGE cactus...maybe an agave?

We then drove to downtown Tombstone and walked down Allen Street to see the old buildings and pretend we were walking the streets of Tombstone during the 1880s. We needed to get on the road so we did not have time to stay to watch a gun fight.
