Terrific looking pizza!!!  But then that's what they get paid the big bucks for.

We were in Phoenix last night. We had been up since 5 and drove about 625 Mi that day so pretty tired. We tried to go to Nando's and it looked really popular and had an hour wait for dinner. Then tried Valle Luna and it also had a long wait. By that time it was seven and I just said no need to find someplace so someone in line recommended just a little Mexican restaurant down the street. Kind of a take out kind of place where you can also sit inside it wasn't bad but it wasn't the greatest Mexican food we have ever had

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned that it was popular and that we normally get reservations.  :'(

These were from a Wal-mart in Sanger, CA (there is a HS football story there, but another time).  Way bigger now then what I remember!

Finally!  I know what I am having for dinner Friday night, with onions & chili!

They are not the 1/4lb, but they are close!

About 50 miles from Alpine, TX, a weather dirigible (?).  That in itself did not seem strange to me, but no idea where the tether lines were.  I would think a pilots nightmare!

We were in Big Bend National Park today.  Went from Santa Elena Canyon to Castolon to Chisos Basin to Rio Grande Village.  A stark beauty, but beauty no less!

They have some wicked prickly pear bushes out there in West Texas.  All we have here are your basic green pear bushes and they are bad enough when you have to dig the thorns out of yourself after an encounter with one.  I've had to burn the thorns off of them on many occasions so cattle can get something green to eat this time of year.  Not a lot of food value in it but it keeps the cattle alive until spring.

. . . but I might be seeing them on my grill. Wonder how a bacon wrapped dog would be as a chili dog?
Hmmmm. Sounds kinda good.

Big Bend is a great National Park. I spent three days paddling Boquillas Canyon in an open canoe many years ago.

It was my wife and I in a canoe and two rafts.

Santa Elena Canyon has the best white water.

Did you get to Terlingua where the famous chili cookoff is? There wasn't much there when we visited.

You are close to Carlsbad Caverns. I have been there a few times. It is one of my favorite caves.

Have not done them in a while but we used to slice the hot dog length wise pull so strands from some string cheese put in the hot dog and wrap with the bacon. Then smoke or grill, I think we even deep fried them a few times.
