Tucson Cowgirl: Writing on Community Health, 2004 and Now
http://surfaro.blogspot.com/2012/06/writing-on-community-health-2004-and.html
We're all cowgirls(boys). So remember our motto: Always saddle your own horse! Sunday, June 3, 2012. Writing on Community Health, 2004 and Now. Negative influences on quality of life.

I focused on what was important to neighborhoods, like preserving traditions, open spaces, cultural celebrations and family table talk. Back then, and still today, I believe we all are.
