Croc, those houses sound kind of tacky.
Well, yeah!! Do ya think?! (o:
The stuff I looked at is pretty good, but the growth is endlessly gobbling up orange groves, cotton fields, desert foothills, etc.
Yep. I probably wrote about this on here...maybe...long while ago, but when I was at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Tempe in 1997, if you stood on the east side and looked off in the direction of the Superstitions, there was pretty much just open land... desert.... Last time I was there.. Feb. 2001.. I stood in the same spot and there were houses all over. Pretty bizarre. Not liking cities too much, I just take off for points elsewhere -- like it to the east out around Globe, Superior, and the Gila River..
I haven't been back down since then. I suppose tourism could be up. I never seem to hear of anyone spending time in the states anymore. At one time, quite a lot of people that we knew were staying there for the winter, but I really don't know anyone who does that anymore.
Uhm.. guess I'm getting off topic and Thread Father Marcos may get a little cranky.
Let's see.. what can I say? Oh, yeah. Heard it announced today that we can start shipping our mad cows down your way again come March.
moooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!
