Trail Dust Town
6541 E Tanque Verde Road
Tucson, AZ
296-4551 . Trail Dust Town was fun. It was dark when I was there so my pics aren't the greatest but I'll add a few in a travelogue. Here is one of me with...ehem...John ;o}
I took so many photos in Arizona, I'm still going through them all and having some wonderful memories.
Mexican flag?
by matcrazy1
I noticed this flag as on my picture in front of Arizona Sonora Desert Museum (ASDM). As I know, it's a national flag of Mexico.
Why did they put it there? Maybe because of the fact that the Sonoran Desert covers northwest part of Mexico as well.

Here's a closeup view of the McMath-Pierce telescope. If you think it's grand, imagine this is just a small portion of the whole thing. Another 300 feet of the structure are underground. It's designed this way in order to keep the air temperature inside the path even to prevent any distortion of the solar image.
Center lane
by matcrazy1
Wear good glasses, enlarge my picture and look at this strange (for me ;-) traffic signs with left-bended arrows. It's written "center lane" above and "only" below the arrows. So, center lane on a street is designated ONLY for left turn traffic. It does mean that this center lane is for both directions but exclusively for vehicles which are going to turn left ----> don't drive this lane otherwise. Is it clear?
try everything on this menu

Fabulous Peruvian restaurant. Very fine cuisine in my opinion. Not too popular, perhaps because it's a bit pricey for Tucson, but the food is fabulous. Because it's not too popular, you won't wait long for your orders. Even if this restaurant were in Miami or NYC where there are many Peruvian restaurants, I would still recommend it, it is that good. The owner is fun to chat with as well. try everything, I have!!! Try the things made with passion fruit. try the coffee, fabulous.
