24. One thing about the water

The water always tasted nice and kind of sweet. My grandmother used to make excellent sun tea. On a recent visit the water tasted like regular tap water, and I remembered my grandmother's sun tea. So I asked my dad how she would make it. He said that you can't make it anymore. They found out that the water that tasted so good got its taste from additives designed to hide the polluted aspect of the water. The water now comes from a different source.

I heard a couple of decades ago that the downtown area was beginning to undergo a slow gentrification. I haven't been in the downtown area since I heard about that. The strip where that 'Burger King' (not associated with the international chain) on the US60 looks pretty much the same to me. I remember in the 70's there used to be a lot of cholos (I am hispanic) hanging out along that part of the highway, especially as you enter town from the west.

A while back I found a good YouTube dash cam video of the drive from Florence Junction through Superior. It was taken during the part of the year when there was a lot of green in the desert before the Gonzales Pass approach. Of course it was clear and sunny!
