Damn! We're in a dead zone. My phone has 1-2 bars. The internet is sketchy. The cable bugged out last year because Cox didn't think it was worth it for 30 subscribers.
WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS????
Nah, it's okay. We'll make do. I hope.
We got in around 4pm and set up. The crazy old people across from us have a new dog who hates them and ran away, so I helped chase him down, Then they let him out again and last I saw he's running around the RV park. If he were a cuter dog I'd just grab him and he could be Apollo's new brother, but he's one of those minpins and (no offense to you minpin owners) he looks like something you'd scream at and flush.
We went to dinner at The Depot/Johnny Ringo's. The Depot is the restaurant part and Johnny Ringo's is the bar. Chicken Caesar salad for Monello, bar pizza with sausage and jalapenos for me. And beer.
Tombstone looks like a movie set, with westerny buildings that are mostly saloons, and the street is roped off because of spontaneous gunfights. I mean, they're fake gunfights, but still. I'll take lots of pics. It's pretty cool and absolutely a tourist town.
Our RV park is cute and rustic, nothing fancy but it's kitschy and cool in a Tombstone kind of way, and the owners seem nice. What I love but also stresses me is that when we go somewhere new we never know what it's really going to be. I research before I book, but reviewers lie and many are overly optimistic. Corpus Christi comes to mind. But that's the (stressful) fun of it: you never know what you're gonna get til you get there. Our place in Las Cruces was AMAZING! as was LC itself, so it was going to be hard to top that anyway.
Have I mentioned that the nearest grocery store is 15 miles away? There is a thing in Tombstone called Apache Market, which is billed as a grocery store with fresh produce, etc. When we found it we didn't realize that was it because, well, it's really a dingy convenience store. The lady there was nice, but this is not going to be our grocery store and, on the advice of our bartender (because bartenders know everything) we will be supplying ourselves in Sierra Vista 15 miles away. The good news is that there's a Circle K 2 miles from us that carries my e-cig brand.
It's okay. We'll make do. I hope.
The drive here was surreal and somewhat disorienting. The mountains are like - gasp. It's big, like it was in Cody, with big sky and big mountains and big landscape. You just feel so small.
We're here a month and that might have been a mistake, but people live here so I'm sure we can too. I'm cautiously optimistic.
