Life on the Line. Discovering the people, the culture and the lives of those who walk the line. Monday, November 24, 2008. Preparing for our culture.

For example, Spaniards. I love the idea of sending our students aro...

I was raised around the a...

The drive is beautiful and the landscape of the Sonoita-Elgin-Patagonia area is very different from Tucson's desert, with rolling grassy hills and cooler temperatures. The conservation farm is a 60-acre piece of land sown with native crops such as tepary beans. Dry red chil...
