It took me awhile to get used to how different this desert city is compared to the good ol Midwest, but after I settled in, I've never regretted it! I love AZ! I cannot believe how many things there are to do here! Even water sports! I love our climate- summer is hot but it only sucks for a couple months. I think it's really fun that you have to dig and research for our gems. I discover new places to try, visit, eat, etc all the time and I feel I could stay here forever and never get bored. My heart is definitely here!"^^ . .
