On our last full day in Arizona we again spent the morning with Jess and Ella. Our first stop was to the longest continuously used baseball field in Arizona which is in Bisbee!
Then Jess took Ella to the park and we went back downtown to check out the Catholic church's windows, see the court house, find the historical house, and get more information about the local ghost tour you can take at night. We ended up going to the courthouse first as there was a funeral taking place at the church. After grabbing some lunch we were able to get inside the church to see the stained glass windows.

It was tricky finding the historical house as the town sits in the hills, but we finally found it. We had to walk up a set up stairs to reach it and because we were 1 mile above sea level even the short climb makes you feel slightly winded.

The guy in charge of the house was kind of creepy and not very talk-a-tive. At one point he opened the shed to show us the wash room and winery. Dan and I both were waiting for him to close the door and kill us. When we finished up at the house we went to get more information about the ghost tour. I couldn't resist taking a picture of a pay phone downtown... they just aren't around any more.
Once we finished up downtown we went back to Matt and Jess's to get ready for our hike at Coronado. On the way to their house we noticed this side street that looked like it was from the 1950's. We stopped so I could take a few pictures. We decided to not go on the ghost tour so we could spend more time hiking and enjoy dinner with Matt and Jess when we were done.
The drive up the mountain in Coronado was amazing and the view from the top was fantastic.

We had a great time hiking and went into Sierra Vista for dinner before heading home.
