    Re: “One Day in Bisbee
    Bisbee is definitely worth visiting! You can't compare Tucson to Bisbee. Tucson is a big, noisy, traffic-y freeway-of-a-city. Tucson is a place you want to drive TO for a show or to shop, then leave. Vacation there? Why would you? It's hotter than hell there in the summer; people in Tucson go to Bisbee to "get away from it all" and to get to a better climate. In Bisbee, we like Thuy's Vietnamese Pho when we're in town, staying at the Toland Adobe, a Bisbee vacation rental (which we own). We prefer vacation rentals (and have stayed at a couple of other nice VRs in Bisbee-- there are quite a few) over hotels. Some of them, like ours, have private yards, which is much nicer than being stuck inside (particularly if you are bringing kids or a dog or two but also if you want to chill out on a patio after a long day on your feet). You can also share the cost of a vacation rental as easily as a hotel room. I agree with other posters that one day in Bisbee isn't enough. I always recommend that people get off of Main Street/Tombstone Canyon and wander around in the neighborhoods up the mountain. Take a drive over to the Warren and Lowell sections, too.
