We spent the morning at The Gathering of the Gun Fighters at the Historical Yuma Territorial Prison on the Colorado River. Bob and Rick thought they would be going to watch gun fighting competitions but it turned out to be old west reenactment groups that put on cowboy skits for a panel of judges. They are judged on there story line, acting, delivery and authenticity. While there we had an interesting tour of the prison museum. From there we went down to the historic district and had lunch at Lutes Casino an old general store, not a Casino. Gambling was illegal so they paid off the local authorities and had a trap door that went down to the basement where the gambling took place.
