From the New Mexico desert, we headed over the mountains into Arizona.

Arriving in the tiny Old West town of Tombstone, we stop to see the historic sites. Unfortunately, it was a bit more touristy than National Landmark, but we enjoyed being able to see it.

When it was time to eat, we went to Tucson for some Sonoran specialties. We had Sonoran enchiladas, which were masa pancakes topped with sauce, cheese, and pico de gallo, which weren't our favorites, but the beans and rice were really good.
We also got some Sonoran hot dogs, which is a bacon wrapped hot dog in a soft Mexican roll, loaded with pinto beans, tomatoes, onions, mustard, ketchup, jalapeno sauce, mayo, and cheese.
It was delicious!
We made it into San Diego, California, the next day. What a great 9 1/2 months it has been! We traveled through 47 of the states, tasted many regional foods, saw lots of interesting and historical sites, toured many major cities, and visited many National and State parks.
What an adventure this has been!
