The air, especially in the early morning or late afternoon, carries a dry, clean scent, tinged with the faintest hint of dust and the promise of rain. Even the scattered clusters of trees, often cottonwoods along unseen drainage ways, seem to lean into the prevailing breezes, their leaves rustling with a sound that is both constant and soothing.
