Wild West legends attract RVers to Tombstone

Tombstone, Ariz., has several RV parks that cater to seasonal snowbirds. (John Nelson)

We looked at Tombstone, Ariz., on a map, then decided to check out the legendary Wild West town.

It was a homecoming of sorts. When I was a little kid, I visited Tombstone with my parents to see where Wyatt Earp vanquished the bad guys at the OK Corral.

Our return visit this year brought a surprise. This area has since become a snowbird paradise, with dozens of RV parks in Cochise County.

We’ll write more about this in Friday’s column in The Spokesman-Review.
