Mood: Hanging In There
Music Listening To: Nada
It's a Thirsty Thursday! How are you doing? It is about 2:00am and I am having a hard time getting to sleep so here I am. Elise is not in her cave but she is purring away. Any plans for today?
Well, here is a bit more about our trip to Bisbee, Douglas and to the mountains. Enjoy!
13 Sept 12
I started the day off at 7:30am, Elise got up at 8:00am and Bobby started his day at around 7:00am. At 9:00am we went to breakfast here at the Lodge restaurant. Elise had machaca and eggs, Bobby had chorizo and eggs, and I had chicken fried steak. We all had plenty of coffee as well to jump start the day.
We jumped into the Tacoma and we headed for downtown Bisbee to sight see. We stopped at the mine so we could take some pictures. Mining is starting back up in Bisbee now in a different location, not at the Lavender Mine were we took photos.
We looked around Bisbee for a awhile before we headed to Douglas, AZ. We arrived in Douglas and we stopped in the Gadsden Hotel to take a few pictures. Then we went to the cemetery to visit Elise's dad's and Mom's headstone.
We stopped at Sheila's house to pickup the key for the cabin. We spent a little time visiting with Teresa and the pugs. After that Elise showed Bobby her old stomping ground. We saw the house she used to live in as a child, and the schools she attended in Douglas.
As we were walking down 11th Street, Sheila drove up in a Douglas schools car and she yelled out of the window, "Gosh they let just about any riff-raft wonder the streets don't they? Ha, ha, ha!
We returned to Bisbee and we settled in to play some "Wizard" and we knocked back a few Jack and Cokes. We also had some popcorn with our cocktails. Of course I lost and Elise won, she even beat Bobby this time. After the beat-down in cards we rested up until we it was time to meet Ann and Johnny for dinner.
At around 6:00pm we met up at the "555" restaurant near the courthouse were Ann works. Ann treated us to a very nice dinner. Elise had lettuce wraps, I had fried trout, Ann had New York Steak, Johnny and Bobby both had hamburgers. It was a very nice evening.
We returned to the San Jose Lodge and we called it a night. Here are a few pictures that we took today. Enjoy!
