The tem- perature was 1060 in the shade if such could be found. Ahead lay the desert, touching the brilliant, azure sky at what seemed an infinite horizon. Giant cacti, some 50 feet high. formed the 3rd dimension. A straight silver ribbon cut across this huge expanse of wasteland. Driving along this ribbon of highway were two chart- ered buses, headed for Scotsdale, Arizona, a suburb of Phoenix. These buses were not ordinary. They housed roughly 350 suitcases and 30 people, suffering from the extreme heat, praying for a miracle that would repair air-con- ditioning. These people were not ordinary either. Their attire varied. Some wore genuine hand-tooled S530 boots t 3 from San Antonio, Texas. Others were barefoot, unable to pry their swollen feet into sandals. As the buses sped on toward their destination, these people, their bible a roadmap, dreamed of their 'prom- ised land.' They visualized a catered buffet on a warm summer evening, followed by a dip in a private pool. Were these people suffering delusions from the heat? Was this dramatized imagination, a mirage? No-At 5 oiclock that evening, two chartered buses pulled up in front of the home of Mrs. William Culton, North Casablanca, Scotsdale, Arizona. Suitcases were opened, fresh clothes were donned, and the evening was on! One of the trip's treats, a day at Disneyland. l26 Sleeping Beauty!

The answer is unknown. It might have heard only the glad sighs of alienated homesickness and missed the look of acquired maturity a little more than before.
