Kickin it, Cowboy style!

Hello! I (Joe) am stuck in Dallas for the next two weeks for training for my job :( it sucks big time, and to make it worse the IRS office was closed at 2pm because of inclement weather - it was 40 degrees and misting...no joke. Anyhow, I decided to look through old pics and pass them along, this is from when Mom and Dad Dougoveto were visiting and we went to Tombstone, Arizona and Old Tucson Studios. Enjoy!


This is in Tombstone AZ, we are just outside of the OK Corral. This is Mom and Dad enjoying the lovely afternoon....


Here you can see the OK Corral in the background, behind Mom and Dad.


We then went to Old Tucson Studios, where they have skits going all day long. Its a really cool place, many John Wayne movies were shot there, along with many tv shows such as Gunsmoke and Little House on the Prairie. some pretty cool ones, as you can see below. Here Mom and Dad actually took part in one of the skits.


This is a gunfight there, it was pretty cool...

They also had a Three Amigos skit, it was awesome! Lots of cool stunts, and it was pretty funny.



Here Dad was missing his old profession, he saw the sign, and decided to starting practicing again, momentarily...



Here the two love birds were taking a walk at Fort Huachuca, an active military base in far Southern AZ, its where a lot of the high tech military communication takes place...



Mary Ellen and I posed with some of the cowboys. it was fun, especially waiting in line with all the 4 year olds to get a picture with them...

Me and Mary Ellen....

Hey Joe,
I can't belive they closed the building. We got three inches of snow last night. It is still snowing like mad and somehow life still goes on. I love all the pictures. Tombstone looks like a lot of fun!

Two weeks away? That stinks! Tom and I felt so bad we actually looked at tickets to Dallas to see if we could entertain you for a couple days. Alas! They are too much! Keep blogging. It will keep you busy...
