I got a chance to work on the Bima, an ocean going dredge based in Nome, AK back in '90-91. That dredge delivered some gold. Owned by Westgold, the bottom shaft broke and they scrapped it.
On edit, The Bima

If you fish and hunt in NM and walk a stream into private land, the Supreme Court in on your side.

Not sure which side of town your staying on, but a day out of the city on the desert would be more fun I would think. Seems to be a better fit for a day with Dad.
Lil' Abners is way overated for their prices. El Corral for prime rib is a much better deal for the money.

Guillermo's Double L if you like Mexican.
Another Mexican restaurant, El Guerro Canelo, for Saguaro Dogs. Great for a lunch.
Taco Fish on 12th just North of Irvington. Great ceviche.
Silver Saddle for an affordable steak, lunch or dinner.
Titan Missile Museum in Green Valley.

Processing! Don't include any bones in the meat, don't cut into the marrow and you will have a less gamey meat. Strip the carcass of meat (debone) and leave the bones for the coyotes.
I'm not anywhere near an expert, just my personal experience.

Terry, had to get a new phone, you know, the Gen3 thing being discontinued.
Also, the Ford is in the shop with a faulty injector so I'm left with a 2wd Toyota.
PM me his number and I'll put it in my contacts.
You interested in heading that way?

Lee,
Are you still out on the Marley Ranch? Dove season is just around the corner and I thought I'd wander out that way.

https://youtu.be/NzFPy0_FjAkthis one was filmed in Southern AZ on back side of Rincon mountains
Sure looks like the Rincons. Maybe a bit too much water, but I haven't hiked the whole mountain range.
There is a post about the last grizzly in AZ killed by Ben Lilly in 1913. Wonder how much of Mutual of Omaha was staged.
On edit, the last one may have been 1935.

CAID Industries in Tucson has there own "school". A lot of their projects need certified welders and walking in off the street with certs in hand means nothing. Any project that needs certs, and there are a bunch of different certs, the man will have to test and pass before they are allowed to strike an arc on a job. One nice thing that CAID does is allow the weldor to practice after work, they will supply all the material and have guidance from a CWI (Certified Weld Inspector) providing the welder has done the schoolwork and can pass the written test. Also, a welding test that has been passed means a bump in pay. Each upgrade, same thing.
There are as many different types of certs as there are parent organizations (API, ASME, AWS to name a few) and types of welds (pipe, structural, pressure vessel, MIL spec, nuclear) and thicknesses. If you are welding for a living on any major project or series of projects, you will be tested again and again, so make peace with that and don't get frustrated. Even the best hand can have a bad day and blow a test.
One part of welding that gets overlooked is vision. A vision test sometimes is required by an employer because if you can't see, you can't weld.

Wax it right before your trip for the best protection will help some. I finally gave up on mine.

Don't know where that is.
Bartlett Marina. Pulled up to the store, got out of the truck and this rock is the first thing that caught my eye. Didn't see what appears to be a deer to the right of the rock until I got home and downloaded to a big screen.
