Had a pint and a game of pool with one of Geronimo's relatives....seriously!

Also visited Geronimo's hideout in Northern Arizona, was a cave house that was curt into a sheer sided canyon wall.....originally reached by hand a foot holes cut into the rock...amazing place....

Arizona has lots of Apache and Navajo historical places to visit....
