I helped do a reenactment of the shootout at O.K. corral yesterday at Wyatt Earp's birthplace in Monmouth Il. The property is owned by an older couple from Arizona whose health is failing them, they have tried to GIVE the property to the city to keep it open but it sounds like the city doesn't want it, (I think every gov't agency in the state of Il. is broke). The property needs some upkeep and
there is no money for it. In the large picture maybe this piece of Americana isn't important but to me it seems sad to see something
like this to be lost.
