: On January 1st 2000, Texas Jess and I traveled to the Calistoga Pioneer Cemetary in search of the grave of Bud Philpot. Bud Philpot was a Stage Coach Driver killed in the Benson Stage Robbery in 1881. This event was one event leading up to the gunfight at the OK Corral in Tombstone,AZ. We found the grave and took several great photos. Oddly enough we got a great video of a fire in downtown Calistoga. There was quite an explosion that we recorded!!!

: """yeah, finding philpot's grave was pretty interesting. at the calistoga pioneer cemetery, quite a few of the grave markers are old pieces of wood with the writing worn away. luckily, philpot's marker was made of stone. strange since he died in 1881. maybe he came from a pretty well to do family. anyhow, we were stoked!!!
