38. I love the state but not the politics

Thu Feb 2, 2012, 02:33 PM

Feb 2012

Arizona is a great state to visit. The Grand Canyon, Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, Flagstaff, Lake Mead, Phoenix area, Hoover Dam, the desert in the west, and much more. I've been all over the state. I love the heat. I love some of the resorts. I love the food!

One day I was in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. The sky turned red. Then I heard something bouncing off my car. It was a small sandstorm. Cool experience!
