Ah, yes. Three-thirty in the morning and another gunshot rings out.
Sounded like it came from Main Drag North. However, it could’ve been a neighbor taking a pot-shot at another prowler. The other night, one of the locals found some sh!thead standing in his teenaged daughter’s bedroom, gazing fondly at the sleeping kid.
What. A. Place!
If my son were not living in central Phoenix, I would be sooooo long gone!
Where to?
Well, really: no place in the Phoenix area is safe. The entire city is awash in crime. And nut cases. If I had my choice and wanted to stay in this area, I’d probably be…where?…. Hmmm…. Parts of Paradise Valley, especially gated communities. Sun City, if brain-banging boredom and freedom from competent doctors are your thing.
Weird noise hums out. What?
Get up to go check on that. It’s not my pool motor (that’s something, anyway). Can’t hear it out the back door. Probably some car or AC motor reverberating down from the north.
Garden spot.
