The Tourist

     We have a guest visiting from England. Now the blog will become a travelogue. We spent three days in Tucson where I showed our guest where we used to live. We explored the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum; Saguaro National Park, West; Catalina highway up to Summertown and Mount Lemmon; San Xavier and on the third day we went to Tombstone
In the silver mine
 
Be sure to read the story of Edward Schieffelin and how the town got its name.
