is a beautiful recreation area and full of very
expensive homes. They are all very attractive. No
McMansions. There are pretty strict zoning laws and
all houses have to be only one story. Lots of flat
rooves and adobe style right angles. There are no
lawns but many very well kept cactus gardens. Big
article in the paper this morning about how the
average house price in Tucson has just fallen below
$200,000 for the first time in years. Huge numbers of
for sale signs and apartment complexes advertising $99
total move in cost or first two months rent free. One
bedroom apts are about $450/month, way less than
Addison Co.
Spent the afternoon reading "The Worst Hard Time"
about the dust bowl years. Really well written. Then
the adolescent boy I've seen wandering around stopped
by with a story that he's 15, just got out of 11/2
years of jail because of mistaken identity but isn't
going to sue for false arrest because he doesn't need
the money. He came over just before I left for the
jazz concert to see if I wanted to take him miniature
golfing.
Another great show tonight. The UofA A jazz ensemble.
Amazing.
