We fly out the 29th.

We had a busy day today. First stop was the Wrigley mansion followed with a visit to the Biltmore resort. We happened by the Loopers performance by accident so we stopped in there for a minute. Next stop was In and Out for lunch and then made the trip over to Tuscon and went thru the botanical garden. After that we took the scenic way back up hwy 77/79 to 60.
Once we got back to Phoenix we stopped and got some diner at a place called the Sushi station, It's one of those places were the food comes by on a conveyor.
I think tomorrow we will head up to Tortilla flats and check out the gun fights if the are doing them.
Thanks once again for the great ideas everyone, My wife had a great day.

Tortilla Flats has saddles for stools at the bar. Dont drive any further the Tortilla as it becomes a gravel road heading to Rosevelt Lake. If you have the time stop at Goldfield mining town. Your driving right by it on the left side of road going to Tortilla Flats. they have gun fights on main street on the hour. Gift stores, train ride, mining tunnel, saloon with food and a 1 man band.

The burger at Tortilla flats was a let down, should have had the chili. We made it to Goldfield just as the wind started and they cancelled the gunfights. Might try to swing back next week.
I think we will visit the zoo Monday and the it looks like the botanical garden is close by.
