Valley Vista in the Land of Wyatt Earp

We arrived at the Valley Vista RV Resort in Benson Arizona on March 8th and met up with Moe and Lori Palahicky. Benson is close to Tombstone and Bisbee Arizona, the centre of the old west and American western history.






On Monday we have visited Bisbee and the Queen Mine where we took a very interesting underground tour of the old mine works. Judy and Lori also did some shopping and Judy got 2 necklaces.













Wednesday we drove down to Nogales AZ (on the border with Mexico) to check out the town and border crossing. After a very good and inexpensive lunch in one of the local Mexican restaurants, we headed north to Tubac where Judy and Lori spent several hours shopping while Moe and Gary waited in a nearby saloon. After Tubac we headed to Green Valley and the Titan Museum.

The Titan Museum tour proved to be a very educational and interesting experience. This one hour tour showed the destructive power that could have been unleashed on the world during the cold war.






After that hectic day all of us were beat and have been taking it easy in using the pool and relaxing around the resort and in Benson.

Today we spent cleaning up and preparing to leave for Casa Grande tomorrow. We also had an excellent lunch at a local pizza joint, Railroad Pizza and then an even better BBQ rib dinner here at the resort. Now that we have ruined our diets, it is time to move on.

We will be spending the next two weeks in Casa Grande and then we will move on to Camp Verde, Arizona and I expect to update this blog within the next week. Until then TTFN
