I have finally made the move from the midwest to the southwest. We have arrived in Tucson and are semi-frantically house hunting. As Tucson sits in a basin surrounded by magnificent mountain ranges, it is almost impossible to find a house with a bad view. Just the drive to the local supermarket takes my breath away as the Catalinas tower over me. It is also the monsoons here and the desert is green, green, green. Everything that has leaves is bushy, flowers are blooming, and the air is fragrant. I am setting up my new office, re-discovering where I packed everything, and looking forward to getting to know this new city.
