Nearly forgot...In between sipping tea and running this morning, we went to a Tucson Farmer's market.
We went specifically to meet up with a rancher whose path we crossed last week on the Gila River. Check out a video of one of the Gila crew giving the rancher a ferry across the river here.
In return for keeping a rancher's feet dry, Paul Schwennesen (we later learnt his name) offered us a Ribeye Steak - and so this morning we popped along to the St. Philips Plaza Farmer's Market for some meat (but as a vegetarian I have donated mine to the carnivore's cause)! The Double Check Ranch raises grassfed cattle, which is definitely increasing on the consumer's shopping list and making it in to the news.
Double Check Ranch is now on a list of places to visit!
