Hey Danr55, I like your attitude ! There are a couple of wineries in Elgin, One of them has a large second floor room available for meetings/lunches/etc. Elgin is south of I-10 off of route #83 to Sonoita then east about 10 miles. Bisbee is an historic mining town, lots of B&B's and small restaurants. (Prices set to accomodiate the tourest trade) Bisbee is about 7 miles north of Mexico, and 30 miles east, southeast of Sierra Vista. One thought might be to visit Elgin first, then the Buffalo Soldier Museum at Fort Huachuca , Sierra Vista, then on to Tombstone and spend the night at various B&B's in Bisbee. The next day, on a one night trip, would be up to Willcox, Safford, Globe and home. On a two night trip we could drive to Willcox, Safford, Clifton/Morenci, Hannagan Meadow, Eagar and spend the night at the casino in Hon Dah , Pinetop area. Next day drive home. If anyone only wanted to make it a one day drive with those on the two day, that person could meet everyone in the morning in Safford and go along up to Hon Dah or where ever that night's lodging would be. There are lots of options and many interesting places to see. ie. just east of Safford there is a tour of the large mine, eat in an old train dining car in Willcox, visit a mineral bath along hiway 191 near Safford, clothing optional, an old western town built for the movies north of Benson, on and on and on.
