Wonderful state to live in. For those that have never visited, it is a lot more than desert and even the desert is not what you would expect.

I came from Portland 14 years ago and have never looked back. You should look at Tucson before settling for the big city. I just happen to own a Real Estate Company!!

I love the Tucson area! All those cacti..... Tombstone, lol! And God, is it HOT!! I think Monument Valley is the most beautiful place I've ever seen. I love it there. Arizona is just full of so much different kinds of beauty, wherever you go! Some day....

The dry AZ climate is very kind to our old cars, and so many scenic places to cruise them too!

Been there twice.

Western ridge of the Grand Canyon in 1999 and just parked on the AZ side of the Hoover Damn in 2009.

I've been to 9 of 10 Canadian provinces, 36 of 50 US states and 16 countries, but I have never been to AZ. I would like to go. My friend bought a couple of places in Scottsdale when the housing market took a beating and the Canadian dollar was par of better.

I have visited Phoenix, Tombstone and Tucson via Google Earth, but I feel that it must be more exciting to actually go there than to expand Google Earth to "full screen." It's on my bucket list. Happy Birthday AZ!
