After ten days we were sad to enter the silence of a missed grandson. His mother warned us. But there wasn't very much sadness in the ten days he hand his mother were here because the activities came fast and furious. In no particular order we visited Eegees for fruit ice to go with our tequila. We went to an art show at Tohono Chul where Falcon played in the children's section. We visited the miniature museum, went hiking in the Sweetwater preserve three time plus a photo shoot designed to help promote Leticia's product. We rode the trolley up Sabino Canyon. Attended church and the potluck after given every year for the winter visitors, or snow birds as we're sometimes called. Three trips were made to the gem show. One day we lunched at Tumerico, a fabulous place that serves vegetarian Mexican fare. We like it so much we ate at the sister store, La Chaiteria, on the way to the airport. One after noon we visited Tucson's Botanical Garden viewing all sorts of desert plant life and a visit to the butterfly greenhouse. We also enjoyed the Super Bowl at our friends, the Kral's. Go Chiefs! One night Letica and I made a venture to Cap and Corks for a cold one as they say. Of course, we included a visit to El Sur, our favorite family Mexican run restaurant on Tucson's East side. Don't forget the Locale bakery, and the downtown trolley, and on the last day we visited a Southside coffee shop called Barrio Barista for breakfast burritos and coffee. Delicious. During down time, Falc would jump up pressing his nose against mine and exclaim, 'I'm going to wrestle you!" I complied most times. At night, we watched a dog movie: Lassie, Beethovan, etc. And don't forget we also cooked and ate well at home. Nobody was catching the skinnies this past few days. But it's hard to turn down anything Leticia cooks. Her flair always produces exciting and delicious things. In other words, life is good, especially today, and every one of the last ten days, too.
Flutter me by by.
