Because our Spring break was taken up by the Mountain Man with the scouts. We did a local trip around AZ. We went to the race track for a few hours, down by Tucson. Then over to Benson to hit a Mexican Restaurant that was recommended to us. It was a 5star on food, and it felt a little sketchy when we pulled up but no worries it was terrific.
Restaurant is in Benson AZ.

We also went to Tombstone, AZ. Which was cool. When tombstone was a thriving town it was full of gambling, drinking women and gun fighting. It was not a place I would want to live.
Grant bought a new new the day before our trip. So we put the first 100 miles on his new, clean smelling truck!
BOOT HILL GRAVEYARD!
Lots of people buried in this grave yard. The head stones were made out of wood and the reason for the death. Which was pretty interesting considering you are in the Wild West.
After the cave tour we needed to feed Hannah. She is not a happy girl when her tummy is empty. We found a restaurant that said, Bread and butter cafe. I thought that sounds cute! We sit down and look at the menu. Everything seems a bit unhealthy to me.
The girls are safe and order hamburgers. Grant gets a hot ham sandwich with potatoes. I don't know what to order, so I get the same as Grant. When my food comes I was not pleased. This was my face!
There was 2 pieces of cheap white bread with a pile of lunch meat ham on top of the bread. Then it was covered in gravy. The whole plate had gravy on it!!!! Mashed potatoes and ..... CANNED PEA'S! What! Do people eat canned peas any more? I told Grant, I am sorry I can not eat this! He said he would send it back. The waitress comes over and asks how everything is tasting. Grant looks at her and points to me. He was going to let me do all the dirty work returning my food. I kindly explained I didn't know the Hot ham sandwich was going to be covered in gravy. She was really apologetic. I felt like a snobby city girl. But I was not going to eat that. Sorry! No canned peas for me!
Laughing after we sent it back... Annie and Hannah noticed everyone in the restaurant had white hair.
In Tucson, we drove up to mount Lemon. Which we did when Katie and James were little. There was a fire in 2002 that burned everything, trees, cabins, stores. It was a rebuilt but the landscape had not recovered yet. It is amazing how cold it was at the top of the mountain.
