We left the motor home at the RV Park and drove over to Tombstone. We visited Boot Hill and had on the recommendation of the lady at the gift shop we went to the OK Café for breakfast. The service was sloooow and the food was only so-so. From there we walked around Tombstone which has become very much commercialized since we were there years ago with the kids. We decided to take a tour of the Good Enough Silver Mine discovered and mined by the man who founded Tombstone. He named the city because people told him the only thing he would ever find there would be his own tombstone but in fact, he became a very wealthy man. Midway through the mine tour a young girl about 18 became ill and almost fainted. Bill, ever the fireman/paramedic took charge and had her lie down with her feet elevated until she felt better. It turns out she is 11 weeks pregnant and had a similar episode prior to this one. I thought that she might be a “drama queen” but Bill said she was cool and clammy and definitely having a medical problem. We ended staying with her and escorting her out of the mine and missing the second half of the tour. They offered to let us go again but by this time we were running out of time and declined the offer. We returned to the campground, hooked up and traveled north on highway 80 and then east on Interstate 10 to Las Cruces, NM. We went to dinner at La Posta de Mesilla. The restaurant has been there since 1934 in an old historic building that was once part of the Butterfield Stage line. The place was pretty noisy but the food was very good. On the way back to the motor home we stopped at Wal-Mart to do a little grocery shopping.
