I've flown through, but never been to Phoenix.


Jan 8, 2016, 10:10 AM

Curious, besides watching our Tigers win the National Championship, why anyone would want to go there?

Not knocking it since i've never visited, just wondering since this is all i've seen of it

Best Is The Standard


You'll now be able to use the phrase "but it's a dry heat"


Jan 8, 2016, 10:11 AM

and know what you're talking about.

Go in June... that's fun


Jan 8, 2016, 10:19 AM

I've been several times for training. Other than work or retirement, I can't think of a good reason to go to the city. There are some interesting things to do north of there in the winter (skiing).

In June, It was stupid hot. and when they say it's a dry heat, that just means it sucks the water out of you and kills you that much faster.

It was 100F at midnight... low 90's at daybreak***

It doesn't feel any hotter than Columbia, SC


Jan 8, 2016, 10:26 AM [ in reply to You'll now be able to use the phrase "but it's a dry heat" ]

Even though it is 10 degrees hotter

But it's like 50 degrees there right now.***

There's something in these hills.


Rent a car and do some scenic driving....it's amazing


Jan 8, 2016, 10:15 AM

It's not flat boring desert. Big mountains and unusual vegetation.

Drive to Flagstaff and back. Go through Prescott and Sedona.

You're welcome.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Also, rent a horse with no name and go for a ride.


Jan 8, 2016, 10:18 AM

It feels good to get out of the rain. Cause in the desert, you can remember your name.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

of course there's no one there to give you a name...***

Flagstaff is one of the prettiest places in the nation


Jan 8, 2016, 11:03 AM [ in reply to Rent a car and do some scenic driving....it's amazing ]

Colder than hell in the winter but pure natural beauty.

Dry Heat


Jan 8, 2016, 10:25 AM

When I've heard the term "Yeah but it's a dry heat". I laugh because us Southerners have no clue sometimes. Those who have said that to me I reply..."Turn your oven on and set at 110 degrees, now...get in and see how that dry heat feels as opposed to our wet heat"

Drive up to Cave Creek, eat at Hungry Frog, and if you have


Jan 8, 2016, 10:29 AM

time, drive up to Sedona, then over to Prescott,- Pretty country.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

was that the place that looks like a biker bar?


Jan 8, 2016, 10:34 AM

just outside of the northern section of town? I had heard about a place that was good, just never took the time to go. I think I saw it when going on a weekend day trip, and was surprised by its 'appearance'. Maybe a different place.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Dont think so, in town- not fancy, but great food***


Jan 8, 2016, 10:51 AM



badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Hungry Frog or H0rny Toad?


Jan 8, 2016, 10:53 AM [ in reply to Drive up to Cave Creek, eat at Hungry Frog, and if you have ]

I thought the Hungry Frog was in Oklahoma City.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


If you want something weird, try Chino Bandido


Jan 8, 2016, 11:40 AM [ in reply to Drive up to Cave Creek, eat at Hungry Frog, and if you have ]

its a Mexican-Chinese fusion place. kinda weird, but the locals love it. It was featured on DDD on food network, which are places I like to try when I get a chance.

The three hour drive north to see the Grand Canyon...


Jan 8, 2016, 10:49 AM

is well worth the time. You can hit Sedona on the way back south. Another geographical wonderland that you won't regret taking the time to visit.

A lot of really nice golf courses ...***

badge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I've been to Arizona, Phoenix, Scottdale, Tucson, Sedona,...


Jan 8, 2016, 11:26 AM

Grand Canyon, Flagstaff, Arizona Cardinals stadium, University of Arizona, Arizona State University, North Arizona University, Hoover ###, Sky Harbor Airport, Cactus, more. BEAUTIFUL!
