So happy to hear you like Tucson! Michael and I have spent many fine weeks there, hiked in Sabino Canyon, and very much love machaca. The Sonoran Mexican food is just the BEST! And I've lived in California and Texas, and eaten a lot of Mexican food. If you get a chance, go to Tucson Tamales. Love their tamales, as the masa is made with corn oil, not lard. Enjoy!

It’s beautiful, all right. Did you visit the Ventana Canyon Hotel (that my uncle’s company built)? It’s pretty v cool. Glad you like Arizona.

Linda's Tucson roots are deep (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linda_Ronstadt#Ronstadt_family_history ). Her album Canciones de Mi Padre comes from her Mexican roots.
