Ty and Marty were two personable and handsome, blond-haired, brothers. Ty, age 23, was lithe, serious, and handsome. Ty liked to reflect upon his actions. Marty, 21, was just as handsome, but a bit more physically substantial and extroverted; more of a sportsman, and not so reflective.
Driving in the car with them, as they headed to the outskirts of Tucson, was their younger brother, Dale, who had just turned 18 and had just graduated from high school. There was more than an age difference between Dale and his older brothers. Dale was not like his brothers: his hair was light brown; he had different interests from his brothers; he was more of scholar; and he was gay.
While there was never any extreme animosity shown Dale by his older brothers, there was also never much friendliness between them. And that is why it both surprised and pleased Dale when his two older brothers invited him on a road trip with them to do some desert hiking at the peak of the summer heat. "It's when the Sonoran desert is at its hottest, but it's also when it's at its most exciting."
Dale and his brothers chatted often about the desert hike in the weeks leading up to his high-school graduation. Dale was pleased that his relationship with his brothers had reached a new, more adult, plateau. And it was also the first time Dale had ridden in Ty's brand new Audi Q7. The air conditioning felt great as the three brothers drove protected from the 104-degree heat.
But what felt especially great to Dale was having been invited, at last, into his older brothers' circle and actually spending time with them on a much planned vacation. Dale was slightly worried about being able to withstand the ordeal of a desert hike in the presence of his brothers, and secretly feared that he would make them think that he was a wimp in some way; if it should happen that the heat was too much for him; or the treks too fatiguing.
But the fears of disappointing his brothers abated when Ty turned off the main desert highway they had been on and went down a rough, unpaved, road named, 'Gila Valley Road', and Ty looked at Marty and smiled, "This is where the trek begins, at our old friend Castel's oasis and hideaway."
Dale commented on his new fears, "It's kind of frightening to think what would happen if our car should suddenly give out in a place like this, with nothing but saguaro cacti and burning sand for miles and miles everywhere you look."
Marty spoke, "Have no fear, little brother. You've got us to protect you."
As Ty's Audi easily took the rough road, and as the sun's intensity heightened, gila monsters in their daytime crevices stirred from their slumber to burrow themselves more deeply.
After 30 minutes of driving down the same road with the same scenery, even Marty expressed concern, "Are you sure this is okay? This the right place, Ty?"
Ty's usual serious demeanor comforted both of his younger brothers, "This is what Castel told me to expect. The drive should take about ten more minutes."
Ty was correct. In the distance were four long, almost windowless, trailer homes, next to a large, one-story, warehouse type structure made of corrugated metal. One of the four long trailer homes was hitched to a large Peterbilt 379 Semi-Tractor. Ty was surprised, "Who would make a structure of corrugated metal in the middle of this desert?"
Dale thought the whole scene was strange, "This isn't exactly the kind of hiking lodge I was expecting to see? Do we stay in those trailers?"
