Justin (moderator) and I met for lunch on Monday

Post by matthew1 »

We'd never met, and after 10+ years of knowing Justin through his posts here, it was fantastic. He's a gentleman and a scholar, and naturally we talked cars mostly through the two hours of hanging out.

He's on a Western US tour, heading home now. Being a federal employee, the government shutdown gave him an opportunity to stretch his legs so to speak. After the Four Corners, he swung through Colorado on the way out.

I took him and my son (9) to a great little Mexican restaurant called Los Gallitos for lunch... an authentic place with small, two-tortilla tacos. Denver has some outstanding Mexican food, and this place is at the top of the list.

Anyway, it was good meeting you, Justin!

Matt - great to meet you, and thanks for letting me stop by to see the house and your son!

I had a great time touring the country. Colorado itself (or at least to the West of Denver) is stunning!

I still think Arizona may very well be my favorite place in the US now, though.

A learning experience is one of those things that says, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that."
