Adventure 822: Day 45/Tucson/2023

Things just keep getting better! Liz was able to connect with her sister and they were off in good time. Unfortunately, a few accidents (not theirs) and more than a few road construction delays left them short of their goal. The good news is that they made it safely to Indio, CA, in good time to watch the Zags. We picked up Elizabeth around 3 P.M. after an uneventful flight, if you don't count the bumps coming into Tucson. We whisked her right to El Nenes for a late lunch, and then over to Eegees for some smoothies which then turned into afternoon cocktails. It's always good to see my favorite daughter and the hugs felt as good as warm syrup on huckleberry pancakes. We settled in and watched an uplifting movie called CODA. Then we put Ellizabeth to work cooking us one of her famous "bowls' for dinner. She's an extraordinary cook and tonight the bowl was salmon marinated in soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, garlic, and sesame oil. She roasted some cauliflower on the side, made a mango/cucumber relish, and a very tasty chili pepper aioli. A little rice in the bottom of the bowl, and Yum, the treat was complete. We watched the first half of the Zag game. Judy even saw a little bit of it, which is saying something since the game didn't start until after nine. Finally, despite the fact that the Wiley Cager skunked me today to take the February lead, life is very good, especially today.

Here we are showing our "good" sides.
Here they are showing their best sides.

 We'll have enough Eegee slushy mix for cocktail hour tomorrow. :)
