And the older granddaughter and her friends (6th and 7th graders) went out with some parents and a couple Tios into the nearby canyons handing out bottles and clear recycling bags.
Anyone who says all immigrants and homeless are viscious criminals are idiots. I've seen far more on the ground compassion and mercy in those communities than I have in comfortable church-going communities all worried about phantoms inconveniencing them or coveting "their stuff" near their backyards.

This heat was bad.
