Old Tucson/Steampunk

On Friday 3/5 we made the journey to Old Tucson Studio to meet with our HRRVC Chapter 71 members who were camping in the area.  We arrived early which allowed us to observe the Steampunk Wild West festival folks arriving and getting dressed.  I can't really explain Steampunk so click on the link and read about it.

It was interesting to learn that some portions of Little House on the Prairie were filmed here.  Also a large number of commercials, several John Wayne, Glenn Ford. The original Gun Fight ast the OK Corral, and 310 to Yuma.  The steam engine Reno is also here. You may remember it from Joe Kidd where is smashed into the saloon.

You can see some of the pictures we took here.
