The Mama Bus

We’ve spent a beautiful three days in Tombstone, Arizona with Grandpa & Grammie Hause.

We’ve done SO MUCH in such a short time and it’s all thanks to the many connections that Grandma and Gramps have here. A partial list of our activities includes:

Touring the Good Enough Silver Mine

The biggest rosebush in the world (8 ft diameter covering 9000 sq. ft!)

The kids first shots at The Crystal Palace Saloon (sasparilla, don’t worry) which Wyatt Erp used to have some interest in.

A shoot out at Helldorado.

A visit to the Boot Hill Cemetery.

A history lesson at the Ghosts & Legends.

Reenactments by the Tombstone Vigilantes.

A Stage Coach Ride.

And so much more, from BBQ’s to new friends and old friends and family. Even neighbours who cooked us a turkey dinner for Canadian Thanskgiving.

THANK YOU so much to Gramps and Grammie, who have TRULY outdone themselves!

Meet Grammie & Gramps!
