TUCSON, AZ
Nine nights in Tucson ... done, just like that!
Here's a quick summary of what I did ...
Hiking
Bridal Wreath Falls Trail in Saguaro National Park East
The Big Loop at Chiricahua National Monument
Touring
Eating
El Charro Cafe - the nation's oldest Mexican restaurant in continuous operation by the same family
Falora - wood-baked Napoli pizza, artisan & hearty greens
The Screamery - hand-crafted ice cream
Eat In - the rest of the week, we ate in - grilled chicken, grilled steaks, and salads prepared by yet undiscovered chefs, Deb and Shana
Sleeping
Deb and I split an Airbnb. It was adorable and perfect for the two of us to work remotely. Sunny house with plenty of space, a grill, a washer/dryer, and easy parking. Yes, those are bars on the windows. Yes, there is also a chain-link fence around the property. Yes, I was concerned too. Yes, it turned out to be great.

Things On My List I Didn't Get Around To
Here are some items on my list that I didn't get around to doing. Sharing because you might be interested in checking them out when you're in Tucson:
Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum - don't let the name fool you. It's actually an outdoor zoo.
Kitt Peak National Observatory - closed due to COVID
Mount Lemmon Scenic Byway - scenic drive in the Santa Catalina Range
Bisbee, AZ - former copper-mining town turned arts scene, 1.5 hours SE of Tucson
Tombstone, AZ - town known for its Wild West history, 1.25 hours SE of Tucson
Several hikes - you can explore for yourself on AllTrails
That's a wrap, Tucson!
Next stop: Sedona / Flagstaff. See you there!
