    It's rare but from from time to time people still discover old ruins and burial sites in the Marana/Tucson area. Just last year or so when they were getting ready to put in a new mall they found some old ruins as they were preparing a site. I've heard of a lot of stories of things being discovered throughout the years but I don't have links for those but I'm pretty confident that at least some of them are true

    It was a surprise I don't think anything else on the menu was different except for the happy anniversary going across the top but I thought it was a nice touch

    We went to Fruition again They printed us special menus that said happy anniversary and greeted us at the door with sparkling wine (I took one sip and poured the rest into my wife's glass). I had pasta carbonara to start followed by their duck breast and my wife had lamb tartare and seared scallops. She had wine and I had beer, a bomber of something I don't remember the name of... Maybe Grimm Brothers something something and it was purty good.

    It has other names but most are shared with other holidays so Juneteenth is the more common name (portmanteau of June and nineteenth) It's not a very popular holiday and is mostly celebrated locally so no days off or anything Some history I have some family history in that area at that time and that's mostly how our family came to celebrate it.

    Yeah, I saw that side by side combo but this one is a Frenchish on its own. They keep saying it's the friendliest airport over the intercom like repetition will make it true but I'm pretty sure it's the (Sun) devil's butthole and not in a good way. Or maybe I'm just snappy because I missed my flight.

    Yeah, Gromnir got it. The guy reminded me of Carlton from Fresh Prince mixed with Bradley Cooper's character in Wedding Crashers. Anyway, flight missed. I walked the entirety of the airport before settling on a Frenchish place to grab some food. Got about an hour and a half before my next flight.

    Flight back has been delayed by over an hour and it doesn't look like I'll make my connection. Worst part is all the slow people taking their sweet time walking around with no sense of purpose, I haven't thought nasty civilians about anyone since I was a boot but today it's making a strong comeback. I take that back, the worst thing is this guy sitting behind me. He looks like a Trevor or Brevin, he put his bag under someone else's seat across the aisle. Who does that?

    Isn't it more likely that kids just *seem* to get more and more obnoxious each generation...because you're getting older? Nah, that's not it

    Grilled some salmon with honey and black pepper and maybe a couple other trace elements. I used a cedar plank, don't judge me.

    Like it says on the tin Happy Juneteenth everyone!

    My grandpa watches Fox News all day. As long as you don't ask him about anything political (or anyhing Fox politicizes) you'd probably get a well reasoned answer.
