00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:05.220 align:middle line:84%
The Santa Rita, as you all
know, is directly south of town,

00:00:05.220 --> 00:00:09.030 align:middle line:84%
and if you go up to the tourist
way, you don't see the brook.

00:00:09.030 --> 00:00:12.110 align:middle line:84%
If you go up the canyon,
you not only see the brook,

00:00:12.110 --> 00:00:15.793 align:middle line:84%
but what you also see
is an old mine there.

00:00:15.793 --> 00:00:16.835 align:middle line:90%
And other things as well.

00:00:16.835 --> 00:00:20.460 align:middle line:90%

"The brook has come down
after so much trouble

00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:25.570 align:middle line:90%
from its watershed.

00:00:25.570 --> 00:00:28.960 align:middle line:84%
Ridges and molars
circled with snow.

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.450 align:middle line:84%
Hovering when we
look up past noon--

00:00:31.450 --> 00:00:33.940 align:middle line:90%
swaying from the shadows--

00:00:33.940 --> 00:00:35.470 align:middle line:90%
trunks of pines.

00:00:35.470 --> 00:00:37.870 align:middle line:84%
Ferns we wade
through for miles--

00:00:37.870 --> 00:00:39.610 align:middle line:84%
feeling with the
toes of our boots

00:00:39.610 --> 00:00:42.520 align:middle line:84%
to fall on branches--
turning to mold.

00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:44.410 align:middle line:90%
Lightning losing its skin.

00:00:44.410 --> 00:00:47.530 align:middle line:84%
For the snakes that lie
there, born from the timber,

00:00:47.530 --> 00:00:49.710 align:middle line:90%
keen for birds.

00:00:49.710 --> 00:00:52.440 align:middle line:84%
At the waterfall, boulders
swell with the light

00:00:52.440 --> 00:00:54.270 align:middle line:90%
as we wave our sandwiches--

00:00:54.270 --> 00:00:57.210 align:middle line:84%
sit on our ponchos
beneath the oaks-- rising

00:00:57.210 --> 00:00:59.840 align:middle line:90%
toward their definitions."
