[John-Tucson]

We had a terrific drive. The weather was perfect at Tucson and at Kitt Peak, elevation 6,875'. The restaurant folks were fast and the meals great. They even took pictures of our cars to put up on the wall. We did get to the peak in time for the 11:30 tour. The drive up, 12 miles of twistys and 5,000' , was outstanding ! There were no cars in front of us and we had our own private road course, we did take full advantage of it !!! Ralph, if you are interested in any of our Tucson drives I can let you know, we normally do a drive once a month to a destination that is of interest. Mikiec, Aida and I are not doing the Brats, Burgers, & Beer anymore, we did it for nine years and feel that it's time for someone else to step up. On a side note, the San Manuel golf course restaurant has been closed for a while now. If you guys want to come down here for a brunch I can look around for a restaurant that can accommadate us.
