Back to Tucson

Graffiti found on the wall off 4th Avenue in Tucson, Arizona

A quick return to Tucson for another day of shopping. On Thursday, I learned there was a one-day 4th Avenue summer sale today, Saturday. And so here we are, picking up bargains and enjoying the larger Saturday crowds covering the sidewalks and jamming stores. Our first stop was at Razors Edge, where Caroline picked up a couple of dresses and some jewelry. With the important stuff in hand, we wandered from store to store, checking out the sales. Most shops were featuring between 20% and 25% off select merchandise. Lunch was a vegetarian treat over at Lovin’ Spoonfuls a few miles away on Campbell Avenue, highly recommended – even for meatatarians like me. Back over on 4th Avenue, upon entering the Goodwill store, a guy stopped us to have his wife admire Caroline’s pirate yarn shirt from Jinx; hmmm, he looked familiar. So I ask this stranger, “Aren’t you the King?” sure enough, he is indeed the King of the Renaissance Festival held up here near Mesa every year. Great shopping, fantastic bargains, good food, and royal celebrity – another perfect day.
