Tucson, Arizona: Okay. It was really five tacos, but five just didn't have the same resonance as two.

Taking a break from tacos... my parents have long been friends with Dee & John, who just happen to be at this same RV resort! We invited them to stop by this afternoon. We caught up and had an enjoyable afternoon visiting. They are also Duck fans, so there was never a lack of things to discuss.

We arrived at our second birria taco restaurant, Mi Nidito Restaurant (My Little Nest), at around 8p and had about an hour wait. Mi Nidito is one of the most popular restaurants in Tucson and has been featured on all sorts of television programs and has a wall-of-fame with photos of their famous guests - including President Bill Clinton - for everyone to admire while waiting for their table. We became practically related to a few of our fellow diners in the waiting area, every one of them a regular. I asked which items they ordered at Mi Nidito and every one said "tacos". But one said the birria taco, one said the ground beef taco and another claimed the carne seco (air dried beef) taco was the best. What's a girl to do? I ordered one of each, of course! (No rice, no beans, just three tacos.)
Oops. And a margarita. It was possibly the worst margarita I have ever tasted. Sour, and I swear - if I know anything at all about margaritas - it was made from a powdered mix.

DT ordered the same thing, except he was clever enough to have a beer. Our dinners were $8 each. We suggest you visit Mi Nidito and have the birrira tacos, but skip the margarita!

Remind me to tell you about the time DT and Mark ate 24 tacos, drank a gallon of milk and then went for a run.
Tomorrow they are kicking us out of this RV resort. They are filling up with monthly-renting snowbirds and there is no more room for daily renters. Where are we heading? We have no idea. Tune in tomorrow to find out! Until my next update, I remain, your beefy correspondent.
