Who is up for a late-afternoon run to Tucson to meet/eat with some of the Old Pueblo peeps?

Oh yea I'm up for that. :love: My most favorite resturant is in Tucson, El Charro on Church Street downtown. I say we make the run stop there for an early dinner and then head off to the meet! Maybe even do a group shot at the Mission just south of Tucson (sorry forget the name of it).

I'm in.

i would be cool me and some friends are thinking about going to tucson in a couple weekends

im in.

San Xavier Del Bac is the mission

I go to Tucson twice a week but I can always go down a third time. Maybe we could do a drive up Mt Lemon.

I've lived here for 22 years and I've never been to Tucson.

You're not missing much.

Tucson = Armpit of the word.

Wow, I lived in Tucson for 25 years and avoided coming to phoenix as much as I could. Where Phoenix has bulldozed the old neighborhoods Tucson still has the old Barrios. I worked for the phone company and you could go do a repair for a 70 year old women and find she was born in the house she was still living in. Much deeper culture than in Phoenix.

It's about a one hour drive to the top of Mt Lemon which is like 9600' compared to Tucson at 2600', they even have a ski area up there.

It seems Tucson is a really big town where Phoenix is a city. Not nearly as much to do, but no where near the number of murders etc as we have up here

Ed, I figured you more for a Rocky Mountain Oyster Club guy

sounds cool...:)

Tucson is the bomb! :bow: I would live in Tucson. We could also take all the SCIONS out to the airpark storage yard and takes group shots there. I wonder how many SCIONS you can park under a 747? :lalala:

when is this run going to happen anyways?

Hell YA! I live in Tucson. It is awesome out here.

There is an awesome resturant out here called Taco Bron. It has all kinds of room and it is one of the best new resturants here in town (and affordable too).

Lets do it!

This sounds like it could be a fun trip. That would be awesome to take all of the Scions out to where they store the moth ball airplaines.... When would this event be??

I drive a thousand miles a week I may not be down with a 200+ mile drive

It's only 90 miles each way and heck it is not like driving to Randodes

So we have some interest.... Me or Bryan can roll with you.

Mid may? Before the meet at Larry's place?

Mid may is good.

It's 126 each way for me I am not saying I wouldn't go but after driving a thousand mile in a week.

MapQuest sucks, I would not trust it to find my way out of my driveway.

From North Scottsdale to north Tucson, 1 hour 45 minutes. From North Scottsdale to Randodes, 1 hour

Not fair :tap: And yes believe it, I used to be a lot crazier.

:P ok, I believe you :lalala:

A trip to Mt Lemmon might not be in the works if they are still working on the road. I'll be back this weekend, and will scout it out. I hear that Rose Canyon lake is going to be opened this week...

So what time in mid-May cause I'll be in town from May 3 through the 18th. I'd definitely be down for some group shots there.

Boy...good to be back home......I say let's shoot for May 14th so boxanne can join us:)

Welcome back.

Yeah... check in with Bryan, I think you were on the schedule Wednesday morning.

:rofl:

Tim,
We were talking about getting our Scions lined up for a shot in front of San Xavier. I don't think we will want to run up to Mt Lemon. I used to live and work up there so it would be a blast to see but adding a sidetrip might be too much. We need a good place to eat. Desert Margaritas suggested El Charro but they can't really handle a group. I thought about the Double L in South Tucson but no good response from that one. What do you think for eats that would not be too far off the main route?
