We Will Return In June 3 comments
Little Colorado River (June 2021) — HDR Image by kenne
Last June, some of us got out of Tucson’s heat and spent a few days in the White Mountains of eastern Arizona.
My good friend, Tom Markey, and his wife Pat were with us. We spent time walking and fishing in the Fort Apache Indian Reservation.
Late in 2021, Tom was diagnosed with Lymphoma. Last week he received his first chemo session, to which
he had an adverse reaction, but doing better now. The tumor in his arm has already reduced in size.
So we are already talking about going back up to the mountain stream pictured above — We will return!

More sweat in the morning walk
Fewer walkers out

Wildflowers near the road
Attracting bees and butterflies
Shadows from tall pines
Passing rain clouds
Scatted drops hit the ground
Ravens on the wing
All’s right in the mountains.

Drought closed the forest

Time for fly fishing.

To have real conversations with people may seem like such a simple,
