About an hour south of Tucson near the Mexican border there is a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. The village of Tubac stands alone, essentially in the middle of nowhere in the Sonoran desert. I would guess that fewer than 1000 people live there, but the town has something like 150 little shops and art galleries with metalwork, pottery and other items. Tubac is an arts colony. Apparently there has been an art school here since the 1940s.There's also an amazing upsale restaurant and gourmet grocery store called Nob Hill. What a surprise to sit down to fabulous fancy food and linen napkins with the blazing desert outside.
The photo above is of a small shrine to the Virgin of Guadalupe, located on the edge of Tubac.

There's a part of me that thinks perhaps we go on existing in a place even after we've left it.
