The Old Fort Sumner Museum which claims to have the authentic gravesite of Billy the Kid. |  |
A marker explaining all the times that Billy the Kid's headstone has been stolen. | |
More good stuff to read. | |
Billy the Kid's grave is now covered by an iron cage. | |
The first time we visited Billy the Kid's grave was March 29, 2008. The second time (when this photo was taken) was June 5, 2010. | |
Billy the Kid's grave is on the far right; he is buried with two friends. | |
The headstone with all of the particulars. Note the fresh flowers. | |
A lighter exposure to help with reading the details. | |
Robyn kidding around while Gil takes a photograph of Billy the Kid's grave. Photo taken June 5, 2010 on our return trip from New Orleans. | |
An interesting grave near Billy the Kid's--a hat is tied to the fence but I have no idea what the signicance is. | |
This little grave can bring tears to your eyes. | |
It was the end of Memorial Day week in June, 2010 when this photo was taken and (presumably) the museum provided some patriotic decorations. | |
A nice pastoral setting around the museum--hard to believe that this area is right in the middle of a desert! |  |

Another view of the historical marker. | |
