On the Loaf

One day I am going to take my time traveling to Tucson and check out some of the sites. One is Picacho Peak, a landform which strongly resembles a volcanic neck, but is in fact some tilted faulted layers of ancient lava flows. It is also, believe it or not, the site of one of the last battles in the civil war. There is an Ostrich ranch South of that, it'd be fun to see those, maybe give Little Lamb a break and pick up some ostrich chops for dinner instead of any lamb products.

There are a couple of ranges of mountains that would be interesting to explore, the "Hotpaws" and the Catalina Mountains. Mt Lemmon is one of the peaks in the Catalinas, a very popular place to escape the heat in summer.

Mrs Phos and I are usually in a hurry to get down there and maximize time with my son and his family, so I guess the exploring is going to have to wait a while. My picture taking is goign to have to be confined to the grandson and taking quick shots out the car window...
