Brunch with a good friend’s first
cousin. He connected us
by text, then we met at Cup Cafe
in the fantastic Hotel Congress,
Tucson’s Chelsea Hotel. The cousin
who I liked in the 80’s when we first met
was now with her high school boyfriend,
charming man with Jeff Daniels’ voice.
Separated for 38 years, they found
one another again and resumed.
Later, we went to University of Arizona
Center for Photography
to see the Walker Evans show.
It’s coldish here, so upside down
flower pots cover cactus tops.
We are surprised how much
we like it here. Maybe because of light.
Esther. I asked Gregg if he remembered the name of a mission we visited when we were in Tucson. He does remember. It is Saint Xavier I think you might like it there.
I love how this post undulates from memory to moment, from gossip to light.
