@donkeypong, Thank you very much for introducing an unfamiliar topic. Actually, I heard about him little bit. I did not read his novels and didn't watch any other film who created by Larry McMurtry. He's really a perfect writer. I noticed he won awards. I represent the younger generation so I do not know much about him. But he has information about him online. I hope, study deeply.
I tell people all the time I miss the greenery that I grew up around in South Carolina. Reading this reminded me to appreciate the uniqueness of what the Arizona desert has to offer even if its not ideal.
