Tacos at El Rincon De Jalisco

Tonight we once again mixed it up for dinner, this time at El Rincon De Jalisco, a Mexican grill rated one of the best in the Miami area for tacos and located in a strip mall in Homestead, Florida. So tacos it was, with Jarritos sodas to quench our thirst, except Conor was the outlier once again, deciding to try a humongous wet burrito. All in all, it was a great choice for a late dinner after our lovely visit to the Everglades.

Don Garlits, known to his fans as "Big Daddy," is synonymous with drag racing and is the National Hot Rod Association's #1 drag racer of all time. I didn't know who he was when I got there, but I sure as heck had a better idea of who he was when I left. The museum was filled to the gills with drag racers of all shapes and sizes, and lots of other memorabilia and artifacts of the drag racing world. Next door to the drag racing museum was the Museum of Classic Cars which was loaded with old, classic and rare cars, most of them restored to their original, mint condition, including a 1956 Chrysler Imperial owned by President Eisenhower. Clare and Conor both enjoyed the visit, as did I, and it brought back memories of my watching drag racing on TV in the 1970s. However...
