They said the doctor couldn't make it up to Cottonwood today.
I think I know why.

We got rain up here from the same storm but nothing like that. Must have been a big storm, I'm 90 miles north of Phoenix.

I've heard that, sometimes, a lotta rain, where there's previously been little/none, can quick-grow some purdy plants.

Yeah, the VA cancelled my cataract surgery as the new glasses got me "good enough" for everyday life - but not so good for shooting.
