Arizona Blond Tarantula sounds like a specialty margarita!

That’s an idea worth toasting. Barrio Brewing Company does have a “Tucson Blonde” and there is a brewing company in California called Tarantula Hill Brewing Company with a Tarantula Hill IPA of course.

I remember the toads coming out when the rains started when we lived in Tucson. They were really loud. I miss them.

Thanks Sally. the rains started and now they've stopped again. It may be a few more weeks until we see our Second Spring.
