Bisbee! and Tombstone! and Ghosts!, Oh My!
Details
This popular 3-day ride will introduce you to some of Arizona's famous history! We will be visiting the glamorous town of Bisbee and the infamous town of Tombstone!
According to Google:
Bisbee was founded as a copper, gold, and silver mining town in 1880, and named in honor of Judge DeWitt Bisbee, one of the financial backers of the adjacent Copper Queen Mine. The town was the site of the Bisbee Riot in 1919. In 1929, the county seat was moved from Tombstone to Bisbee, where it remains.
I made reservations at:
La More Hotel at The Bisbee Inn is the second largest and second oldest hotel in Bisbee, Arizona. It's colorful past remains present within the rooms and halls of the buildings. There will be absolutely no refunds for paranormal activities that take place in your room or on the premises. This includes, apparitions, poltergeist, spectral, possessions and bumps in the night. If you have a fear of such things, kindly stay at another hotel.
