What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Old Tombstone Western Theme Park

 This is an area where they are presenting a comedic wild west show and have building replicas of an old west town.  They also have miniature golf.  The Gunslinger Museum is also there, but was closed when we visited.  The show had three actors, a miner, the sheriff and a gun slinger.  It trid to be funny, and at times succeeded, but it seemed they were trying to hard.  I enjoyed the actual reenactment much more.

Tombstone Arizona

 Tombstone has a very western and cowboy history.  Howevr it is now mostly a tourist trap.  They do have the courthouse with a gallows out back.  It is now a museum but was closed when we were there for repairs.  The area has the OK Corral where reenactments are held.  There are several museums, including at the OK Corral, and the Gunfighter Museum (also closed).  There is also the Rose Tree museum, The Birdcage Theater, and Good Enough Mine Tour.  There is also a ghost town tour with animatronics.  (More like a haunted ride than a museum.). There is another drama presentation at the Old Tombstone Western Theme Park.     














The following are from the OK Corral area where there was a photo shop.

Windy Hill Campsite, Lake Roosevelt

 Windy Hill Campsite is one of the few that was open around the lake.  It is toward the southern portion of the lake.  It has about 300 campsites.  When we got there, the first night it was pretty open but then Friday and Saturday nights it was very full.  It did provide showers and flush restrooms.  However our site did not have electricity so we were dependent on the solar panels.  The work well when the sun is shining but the evenings were usually overcast.  Thursday to Sunday, April 2-5.
