Nothing to do at night so being a good book. There is a gunslinger show. It's a touristy town an experience. The biosphere is not too far.

Boot Hill and the saloon were cool (went in 1989 so it may be very different now). Always like to check out the big universities when I can.
Was walking around Nashville years back and the end of Vandy stadium was wide open and NOBODY anywhere around. Wife got a few nice pictures of me just standing on the field.
