Day four of In-N-Out being open in Tucson. We were tired of driving by, seeing the horrendously long lines, and going home to eat turkey sandwiches. It was NOW or NEVER!
11 a.m. - We pull into the drive-thru line, prepared for a wait.
Unless you live in Tucson, you won't have any perspective on this picture, but for those of you aware of the surroundings, the line began west of Krispy Kreme (Rest in peace, Krispy Kreme). I'm bad at this, but I'm guessing there were somewhere in the vicinity of 60 cars in front of us when we first got in line. You probably think we are nuts, but If you've never had a world famous In-N-Out cheeseburger, you just wouldn't understand!
As we inched our way forward and rounded the corner, we caught our first glimpse of the beautiful red & yellow In-N-Out sign! Can you see it? (Click on the picture to enlarge it.)
Halfway through our adventure, our nephew Parker joined us. Jackson loves his cousin! He especially loves Parker's sunglasses!
Here is our order taker!
We're getting closer!
Here's the girl who handed us our first taste of Tucson's In-N-Out.
Nathan is so happy! (Ok, he doesn't really look all that happy in this picture, but trust me, he was one happy man!) 
12:02 p.m. - Mission Accomplished!

12:02 p.m. - Mission Accomplished! We drove the 3.3 miles to our home and enjoyed a cheeseburger, fries, and a chocolate shake (that was for you, Donna R.!)
One of these days the lines will (hopefully) calm down enough that we'll actually be able to go inside, order, and eat there! On a side note, a second In-N-Out is opening in northwest Tucson sometime this summer. Hallelujah! (I think I should be an In-N-Out company spokesperson!)

That was a cute story with pictures! Glad you finally got to eat there, even tho it took you over an hour to get your food!
Love you!

Next time drive to Mesa (the lines are much shorter)that way you can have your burger and see us too!
It was worth the wait! Not sure it's worth the weight though.
