Rodeo Vacation Pictures, See Blog About It Below
Rodeo Vacation
Rodeo vacation is a Tucson tradition. Tucson has a whole week of rodeo festivities at the rodeo grounds, and all schools in Tucson have a 4 day weekend. Our rodeo vacation was a busy and fun one! The L.A. Villalpandos came to visit, & Tracy had 2 friends in town (see below).
We tried to show the L.A. Villalpandos a lot of what Tucson has to offer, but time flew by & we didn't get everything in that we wanted to. But there is always next time! They were curious about the rodeo so we went there for a little while one of the days. We also spent time by the pool at their hotel, showed them some unique to Tucson spots to eat, showed them Bookman's (a chain of stores around here that sells gently used books, magazines, electronics, movies, etc.), and went to Trail Dust Town. Trail Dust Town started as a movie set for a Western movie a very long time ago, and now it is a tourist hot spot. We took our friends Jackie & Sean there back in October. It has covered wagons, a fun Western restaurant, Western shops, a shooting arcade, a train, and a stunt show.

Over rodeo break I was also able to see 2 of my friends from California. Vanessa was visiting from San Diego so I was able to see her & her other friends and family that were visiting from San Diego & some that live here in Tucson. Vanessa has a cousin that got married here over the weekend.
I was also able to spend a fun day with my friend Erin. We met in San Diego, but she now lives in Santa Cruz. She has grandparents that live here. We went hiking in Sabino Canyon and had a delicious lunch at Dakota Cafe in Trail Dust Town. It was so great to catch up with both of them!!!
