Pool Party with Pan Dulce Caribbean Jazz

Posted on | September 2, 2010 | No Comments

The Sheraton Tucson Hotel & Suites invites you to spend your Sunday afternoon relaxing by their sparkling pool. While you’re just lying there doing nothing at all <grin>, you may as well enjoy the Caribbean jazz sound of Pan Dulce! Oh, yeah. Sounds fantastic to me. They play calypso, soca, Latin jazz, and other island favorites.

No cover, drink specials, great food, and free Wi-Fi.

Music on the Mountain: Chuck Wagon and the Wheelchairs

Posted on | September 2, 2010 | No Comments

LAVA Music ends its 2010 summer  Music on the Mountain series this Sunday. Drive up the ol’ mountain this Sunday to hear Chuck Wagon and the Wheelchairs. These guys are so much fun! Grab your lawn chair and go!

We went to a couple of Sunday concerts in Summerhaven last year and had a blast. It’s nice and cool up there. What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon?  And I sure would suggest getting there early. Have a cookie or a bowl of chili up at the Cookie Cabin and then head to the event. The cookies are AMAZING!

Labor Day Deals at AJ’s

Posted on | September 2, 2010 | No Comments

AJ’s Fine Foods has a couple of lovely deals for anyone planning a barbecue this Labor Day. Grab USDA Prime Top Sirloin (boneless) for $4.99/lb instead of $8.99. Or how about some baby back ribs (a personal fave) for $3.99/lb instead of $6.99/lb. I am fairly sure the sale runs through Labor Day, but not 100%. I just got notice of this through e-mail and don’t see an expiration date. I called and sat on hold for about five minutes before giving up. Sorry.

P.S. Let me know what time I should arrive for dinner.
