How many times had she rescued it? She'd lost
count. It seemed that every year since she'd gotten it, it had dwindled
down to nothing and she'd had to give it a serious haircut to get it
going again. It would, almost overnight, grow lush and full only to
start dwindling and drooping again with no warning. How often she had
looked at it, remembering, or drawing comfort from its upright eager
vines that never seemed to quit. Poor Charlie, she thought. How many
more times can I hack away at you like this and expect you to live?
Again they slow down, then stop, look about, they hear
the water slapping the bank from the Great Lake again, but can not see
it. The breeze from the lake is picking up, as the window is rolled down
they can feel the breeze, there is a chill to it, so they roll it up a
bit more. Trees are swaying.
The first
thing you need to do is keep your emotions in check. This means, don't
try to cry, shout, swear, whine, moan, or groan your way into getting
what you want. This simply won't work. Act like a mature adult and try
to keep your emotions contained, no matter how loud the other person
might get.

Considering cost of
living in her area in the seventies, her income was suitable. A new home
could be purchased for $25,000. A postage stamp rose from $0.06 in 1970
to $0.15 in 1979. I asked my mother if she could recall some prices of
the decade. She remembered bread being $0.29, gas $0.74 a gallon, candy
bars $0.05, soft drinks $0.10-0.15 a bottle in the early seventies and
in the late seventies prices started to rise. She remembered cigarettes
costing $1.00 a pack, cracker $0.29, milk $1.00 and most canned goods
$0.10. As my eyeballs came back into focus, I watched him unfold the
same pocket knife and as he bent to retrieve another chile from the
plant, I prayed it wasn't for me. Realizing it wasn't I thanked the
great capsicum god in the Hatch volcano and considered crying.

experiences at the Shadow Bar occurred more than forty years ago, but I
still wonder if I should have reported the incident when I returned to
Engineers Hill. I'd finally made it, I thought. A step closer to bottling our
green chile sauce, a cooking sauce resplendent with flavor and I could
envision a bottle on every table in America. I just needed the right
chile. It's hard to do anything. It's hard to button your pants or brush
your teeth, let alone jump off a three-story building into a pad. This
movie was the most physical thing I've ever had to do, and I had to do
it with a broken hand. It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my
life. Constantly having to take hits and fall and run through explosions
and get hit and beat up all day. Aside from my hand, I also got 25
stitches making this movie, in various parts of my body -- stuff that
had nothing to do with my hand.
