Tombstone, Arizona

Of course we had to visit Tombstone while we were staying in Tucson. One of my very favorite movies of all time, I have seen the Kurt Russell version probably 100 times and was able to watch it on the big screen while I ate a veggie burger at Doc Holliday's Saloon! The reenactment at the OK Corral is a must see and is about $10 for an adult. The Tombstone Brewery is just down the road from the courthouse and had quite a few options to try.

Virginia City, Montana

Virginia City, Montana was just a short drive from where we were staying in Ennis. Virginia City was founded in 1863 when gold was found in Alder Creek. The site is now a National Historic Landmark. We used a self guided walking tour map to see almost 80 historical buildings and sites and thousands of artifacts. Everything was pretty close together so it was an easy walk. Definitely take the car up to see the cemeteries as they are quite a hike uphill. The view from the Boot Hill Cemetery is spectacular!
