Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.

Tucson (AZ)

Feb. 24, 2012 - This morning we went to the El Presidio historic district of downtown Tucson.  A small Spanish fort was built here in 1775.  Now the streets are home to shops, restaurants, museums, government offices, and park areas.  We wandered through the streets and ended up at Enoteca, a pizza and wine bar, for lunch.  We sat at the bar and had a great conversation with a Milwaukee transplant to the Tucson area.  She talked to us about places we might want to see while we’re in southern Arizona.  She also told us that we had stumbled into one of the best restaurants in town!  I love sitting at the bar in small restaurants.  We always strike up a great conversation with anyone else sitting near us.    

We fell into a heat-induced state of laziness when we got back to the RV.  Temps reached 80 degrees today and the RV was very warm.  Charles J. Brady states, “The real measure of a day’s heat is the length of a sleeping cat.”  Our cats were stretched out to their full length.  It cools off nicely at sunset, though.
