It was 75 degrees today...and I felt cold. I don't remember my days in Utah, D.C. or Colorado - universes away from my present. I once despised the desert, longed for anywhere but. Then I spent a summer in Japan. My breath was stolen by the sheer green of the place, the crazy angles of mountain on mountain. But I missed the flat brown and red rock in a way that felt like hunger. I'm Arizona. Who would have guessed.

Amy,
Are you Mike and Cindy Hendrix daughter? If so, I am your cousin Michele Romney. I am trying to get a hold of your family to get some pictures for a Tenney Video I am putting together.
Would you please email me at
micheleromneygarvin@gmail.com and give me your email and your mom and sisters email? I'd love to talk with you.
Thanks,
Michele
