Blue Peril

I was researching the Western I was writing and was outside of Tucson, in the desert, on foot in 110 degree heat, having hiked about five miles out from the highway. It was an amazing feeling, scary but exhilerating at the same time. I could see the heat waves on the horizons and it made cactus look like people and sand look like an ocean.
