On our drive across Arizona we made a quick stop at Tombstone. One of the most famous town of the old west, the town today – at least the old section of it – appears not too much different than it would have in the late 1800’s when the Earp brothers and Doc Holiday had a gunfight with the outlaw cowboys – the Shootout at the OK Corral.
Interestingly, Tombstone is only 30 miles from the Mexico border and we saw border patrol everywhere. They had a station where there where stopping all cars headed north. There was extensive imaging equipment set up that scanned every vehicle, drug dogs on the prowl and a hoard of agents asking all kinds of questions and searching all vehicles.
