I felt much better today but still ate soft foods in very moderate quantities. By early afternoon I declared myself well and ready to do almost anything but sit around the trailer. Cathey called Brian Tegan to warn him that we were on our way and off we went. Brian is Claire Tegan’s son; Cathey and Claire were next door neighbors when their children were very young.
We had visited Brian last spring when we were here, and Cathey had taken a picture of Brian standing next to a large leaning saguaro cactus that was part of his front yard. Sometime last summer the saguaro had toppled over and now it is reposing in the front yard. Brian explained that he was waiting for the fleshy parts to rot away and then he would salvage the stiff wooden rods that make up the structural core of the plant, and use them for landscaping elements.
We also met Pam, Brian’s partner and Boomer the dog; we had seen Boomer when he was just a small puppy last spring but now he is quite grown up. Pam is originally from Salt Lake City and loves the Tucson area without reservation. We had a very pleasant afternoon visiting with Brian, Pam and Boomer!
