First stop on the epic road trip, as I mentioned, is Tucson, Arizona. Home of Boyfriend's sweet little granny's grapefruit tree.
The tree is more than thirty years old, and, as granny likes to tell us proudly, all the fruit is organic since all she does is water it with her garden hose every once in awhile. By the way, grapefruit flowers have a lovely sweet scent, too, although not so powerful as our orange trees.

I would really like to own a thirty-year-old tree in my lifetime, and know that I nurtured it from seedling to a fruit-bearing giant. That would be quite a feeling.

The grapefruits are delicious.

Tucson also has lots of airplanes. Don't these airplanes look sort of mismatched? They have a big Air Force base here, but I think they roll out the biplanes just for fun. If you're into that sort of thing, there's an amazing airplane museum, too.
Tomorrow we're taking a day trip to Nogales, so stay tuned for documentation of scenery and whatever. Oh, and kitschy touristy stuff (Mouse is a sucker for it). Happy Monday if I don't see you.

P.S. Did you know that in Tucson Target, you can buy SPF 90+ sunscreen? Mouse is ecstatic!*

* Mouse sunburns like you would not believe. I mean, really.
