Heading Home

Grumpaw decided that a pit-stop in Douglas, AZ, where he lived as a small boy, was not necessary. He was tired and we were all ready to head North.

The last place I wanted to stop was Tombstone. Nana was opposed to even driving through the town, let alone stop. She had been there twice before and she said that was 2 times too many.

Grumpaw was nice and slowly drove through the town. The most exciting thing I saw was in this photo...

It was a store named "Rhinestone Cowboy". Yes, I did begin to belt out the Glen Campbell favorite! I also saw a stage coach for hire & I was let out of the car to investigate. But at ten buck a head, I passed.

All in all, Nana was right. Tombstone is a great movie and holds a great piece of Arizona history, but that is just about it!

Our final stop was at a dinosaur that Jake had spotted off I-10 on our way to the caverns. Grumpaw made a special pit stop on the way home so he could visit the dino!


We all saw a lot of Arizona in 2 days. All 3 boys did a great job, Grumpaw didn't raise his voice once and Raelynn only had 1 small disagreement with our plans.

What a wonderful trip! Thanks Nana and Grumpaw, We love you.
