Today, I am really feeling the effects of almost 4,000 feet elevation. But I persevere and we head off to Boot Hill, just a few miles from the park.
Well, this is the reason Don did not get to go UP on Boot Hill. And by the time I got to the sign, I was breathing heavily.
What?? I still had more steps to go!! My head is feeling very light.
It was worth the climb and I took lots of pictures for Don to see, including this very impressive and large sculpture, The Trail Boss.
The fence protects the first graves on Boot Hill… a mother and her baby.
Mrs. Lillie Miller and Infant. I guess adding the prefix to her name was more important than adding the date.
All the markers are wood and the name and date is carved.
Time to descend back to where Don is reading about the history of Boot Hill.
By this time, my stomach is all queasy and I am feeling really awful.
It’s time to eat lunch and head back to the Q to take something to get rid of this headache.
