The first of this year's visitations took the form of Angela, our oldest. Never having been to Tuscon, she arrived Friday night with a list of things she wanted to do. We started with feeding her the cheapest and best family Mexican food we've found so far in Tucson. It's a place on the East side called El Sur. Satisfying on every level. We then made a walking stop in the Barrio Viejo just off down town. Of course, the next day we had to walk a little bit in Sabino Canyon, mostly to walk off the Sonoran Hotdog we had at El Guero Canelo's. Sunday we went to church and afterwards, we took a little hike in our favorite cactus forest, Sweet Water Preserve. Last night we drove up to Gates Pass lookout to watch the sunset. Angela managed to tug along some wine and three cups. It was a splendidly warm commune with nature. Today, the girls (Ginny, Judy, Angela) made their first run at the Gem Show, and this evening we're going to enjoy a cocktail at the old Congress Hotel downtown. Following that, we'll stop at Nene's food truck for dinner, which will include getting food for Leticia and Falcon, who arrive at ten this evening. Who knows what adventures will follow from here, but one thing is for sure: Life is good, especially today.
Even stark white has a presence.
Heading up Sabino Canyon.
