Tucson GEM Show & Cattletown Steakhouse

The Cattletown Steakhouse here in Tucson has a very nice fish dinner and we've gotten in the habit of going there on Friday nights during Lent.  It isn't Lent, but off we went there tonight.  Ron & Dee K called and asked if we were interested in going there for dinner and it sounded good to us.  We lucked out and found a parking space right in front of the entrance.

We left here in plenty of time to get there for the Earlybird special, however we hadn't planned on the place being mobbed with patrons.  There was a 20 minute wait to get seated and the drinks were delivered quickly, but the dinners were another story.  It took a while but we were enjoying a good conversation and the time went by quickly.  We managed to stuff ourselves and had to waddle out of there without dessert.  That was fine with all of us.

We always run into people from the park at the steakhouse and tonight was no exception.  There were 3-4 other couples there and we chatted a bit and then hit the road.

The place was full since the 58th annual Tucson Gem & Mineral  show started today.  The are hundreds of huge tents and other places full of gems.  We have gone to a number of the tents in the past, but I don't know if Gerry still wants to buy more gems.  Time will tell.  See the following link for the Tucson Gem Show

It was another sunny and warm day here in Tucson and the weather forecast is for more of the same for the ncxt week.  Shorts and t-shirts were the order of the day around here.  It would be nice if we don't get another cold snap, but I imagine that is just wishful thinking.
