EMBRACING ARIZONA {2}

IN CONSTANT EFFORT to find love for Arizona, here is another such moment. My grandparents live in Safford. My entire life we traveled back and forth past the Pima cotton fields; it was my favorite part of the drive, still we never stopped. Finally, 28 years later I stopped and looked and smelled and felt at sundown. It was beautiful and in that moment there was no other place I would have liked to be than Arizona in that cotton field.
