I have been reading the Sunday paper this afternoon, sort of catching up on where all the wars, fires and bad guys are at and what condition they are in.
One article that caught my eye was about Tucson's growth. A map shows Tucson's metropolitan area in 1930, 1950, 1970 and 1990. It was quite amazing. In the 1930, 1950 versions we were a small town, and in the 1970 version we were a small city. Here in 2006, the Tucson metropolitan area covers 400 square miles.
Arizona caught my eye, and my heart, many years ago. I love it ... it's people, history and it's desert.
