Seeing Our Country
Saturday, May 21, 2005
5/21/05. The main point of interest to the visitor of this fair city will probably be to visit the historical sites. In the rebuilding of the city over the years, many of the historical features have been moved or destroyed. Boot hill cemetery, which has been moved twice. Still, a solid attempt to recreate"Front Street" is successfully pulled off with this replica of the buildings present when Earp and Masterson walked the streets. Included are three actual buildings which have been moved into this exhibit area and are pretty much fully restored. They include an old school house, a residential home, and a smithy. All in all, a very interesting exploration of our western history, the good and the bad.
