Ty's Take

September's the month when this basin finally gets some relief from the heat, and the folks at 100% Otero aren't shy about using that window to talk about recovery, whether from addiction or anything else that's been holding people down. National Recovery Month lands right when the water in those high country streams starts running clean again, and there's something about fall coming on that makes people ready to take stock. The timing's no accident, and neither is the work these groups do year-round. Around here we've learned that recovery, like fishing, takes patience and the right conditions, and sometimes all it takes is somebody reminding you that September's the month to start.
