Give a little, blog a little.

Whoohooo! So how long has it been since the last time I've blogged? About 1, 2, 3, >6< MONTHS?! Wow. Well, I'm here to catch you up! It's your lucky day! :O So here I am in gorgeous Sierra Vista, Arizona. Wifi has been scarce as I've been staying with my great grandmother in Tucson for the past 5 days. I'm glad to be out of there! The musty smell, the look of wrinkles everywhere you look, is not overwhelming, rather underwhelming [the idea of old age doesn't exactly attract me, although I love my family very much]. We also went to an old theme park in Tucson, just the other day. Old Tucson to be exact! [Nice name huh?] Well I've got a couple pictures to put up, and I think I'll make a slide show, so I don't have to take up a bunch of room. You'll find 2 or 3 different slideshows on the sidebar to your right with pictures from Old Tucson, and Queen Mine, which we went to today in Bisbee. We had to wear thick, raincoat-like jacket, along with a belt that held a heavy flashlight battery that draped over your right shoulder. You also had to wear a hardhat. It was amazing how cold it was in the mine. A toasty 47* F! Well, we rode a minature train into the mine, and we went up a staircase into a room where at least 30x60 feet of rock had been blasted out in the 1900s by old time miners. While we were being told the story of everything, I took a lot of pictures. Did I forget to mention that the town's main production was copper? They name all their stores/lodges after that fact as well. They've got the Copper Queen Hotel. Their lights in the mini-mall are made of copper. Most of the souvenirs in the gift shop were copper. :O It's like find some gold or something! Lol. We also scoped out the local shops, and art galleries. If you ever go there, be sure to check out the Bizz Art Gallery. It's pretty cool. And they had memorbilia of my favorite thing in the world: Twilight! :D I was shocked when we got in there. I thought it was just going to be another boring day, of typical tour-ism-ing. But nope. Unfortunately, the store owner decided to tell us the truth of the shirts, that they was seconders, but who cares? That made my day.
After that, we decided to head to the hotel and relax. We had a few issues with the manager, with wifi and all. But if it weren't for my grandma, I wouldn't be writing right now! So we went swimming, took showers, etc. And tomorrow, we're going to go to Katchner Caverns! :D Some kind of caves. We studied them in science class, back in December-January? Anyway, I'm going to post the pictures and I'm off to bed, for an early morning to Karchner tomorrow morning. Well, tata for now! -Kiana
