I had to come to Tucson for MSHA training required for jobs I am doing at a couple of mines next month.\u00a0 I’m in a motel room right now.\u00a0 I lived here for about 4 1\/2 years when I was a kid.\u00a0 I went to school here (DeGrazia Elementary<\/a>) from the middle of 1st grade through 4th grade.\u00a0 I am staying about 4 miles from the Tucson Mall so I decided to go there after the training to unwind a bit, walk around and get some exercise.\u00a0 That place was dead, it was 5pm when I got there and some of the stores were closing.\u00a0 I think I saw more people working there than customers.\u00a0 Anyway it brought back many memories.\u00a0 I don’t remember going to the mall often.\u00a0 I think we went to ZCMI more often than we went to the Tucson Mall.\u00a0 I do remember driving around the parking lot.\u00a0 The river passes just to the north of the mall, and I remember watching people ride their bikes and jog along the river.\u00a0 I remember riding my bike along the river (or maybe it was just walking) when we lived in a town house on Avenida Primera, about a mile away from the mall.\u00a0 I remember watching that river path as we drove down river road from our house on the northwest side of town to the ranch where I rode horses on the east end of town.\u00a0 This trip wasn’t supposed to be a trip down memory lane, but it has been.\u00a0 I should probably leave the past where it is and get back to my homework.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

A business trip to Tucson turns into an encounter with my past.
