He Had To Ask?

Our recent road trip took us on a side trip to Tombstone, Arizona. No surprise, as my hubby is a Cowboy at heart. He's the rugged, outdoorsie type, loves the desert and camping, and is known to belly-up-to-the-bar for a beer every now and then. He drives a pickup truck, but loves it like a horse.

 
This was a fun stop, with lots of the original buildings still in place.

 

 



 As I recall, this was one of the original Wells Fargo Stagecoaches


they were all available for hire
 

Everyone was in character, shopkeepers and stuntmen


This guy saw me taking pictures, 
and came out to casually pose at the doorway.
When I was done, he went back inside.
  Nice touch.


But the big bonus of the day came 
when Hubby met the Old Timer.


I think he thought he finally found someone
 that  would be able to answer The Big Question.  


I busied byself taking pictures, while they talked it over.


I already knew the answer to that.


Counting My Blessings,

  5. What a cute post. You are quite the story teller. Loved the way you described your hubby. What a gal you are for visiting this place with him. The photo op and a storyline...what we won't do for our blogs, huh?
    Just kidding, I would enjoy a place like that. Remember the days when Knotts Berry Farm was just an old western town.
    We found a place like that when we lived in Modesto...can't remember the name, but they had stage coaches and a real shoot out. Enjoyed your pictures and we all know th answer to that question. LOL

  6. This made me laugh. How fun!! It would be so cool to visit this place. Of course it reminds me of so many historical fiction novels I've read over the years.

    Love that the fellow came out to pose for you....so casually.
