Tombstone, Middle of Nowhere with a Rabbit, Mule and a Buzzard

Howdy From The Middle of Nowhere!
Tombstone (Arizona)
30 miles from water
2 feet from Hell!

The sender writes:
Hi, Still going strong.  We stayed here today.  Saw "Boot Hill" The place outlaws are buried.  Not to crazy about this country.  Trust all is well.  Probably cold at home (This was sent to Maine in January).  Can't seem to contact anybody on the radio.  To many mountains I guess.  From 4000 ft to 11000 ft high.
See you later

This postcard features a buzzard / vulture getting ready to pounce on a dehydrated donkey.  I'm not sure about the happy rabbit.  He looks like he's ready to pounce on the donkey too!  It is postmarked in 1962 with a 3 cent stamp.
