Their history is fun to read about as well. Mi Nidito is another one I hope to visit soon. Joe was all about the vintage fire engines. I enjoyed watching him leaning in to check out all the mechanics.

El Charro was a real treat and I do love the history about how it started…<br />YES, it is windy…gusts to 35 miles. Thank goodness where we live the dust is not so bad, but we can’t see the Rincons today!

I think we went there for an anniversary lunch one time--need to go back! Is the wind howling in Tucson?? Out here it's absolutely insane, the dust is so thick, not fit for man nor beast!
