Desert Incubation

Here in this peaceful environment, I've been enjoying quietness, time with family, and helping out around the house. It's a comfortable place to readjust to American culture before being thrown into busy life again. The sage-scented air is refreshing, the warm water for washing dishes caught me off guard, and the two coyote pups wandering the yard this morning got us all excited. (The first for my granparents, even after living here 20 years.)
