Steve says I need to be more positive about AZ, so here is a list of the things I like about it...
1. Flip flops can be worn year round, works for me.
2. Citrus trees are everywhere. Out our back door I pick grapefruit, tangelos, and oranges, yum. Soon to come...peaches.
3. The roads have light reflectors, so the lanes light up at night. Neat.
4. I do love looking up in the sky and seeing palm trees, it gives the feeling of living by the beach.
5. The shopping cannot be beat. Everything you need is just around the corner.
6. There is apparently hiking, I have heard of people going, but I have not yet discovered where. So that must be good, I will let you know.
7. You can trick-or-treat without a snowsuit under your costume, or over. I remember as a kid going door to door in the snow and if you didn't want them to ask you what you were you had to wear your costume over your coat.
8. You can find snow only 2 hours away. Better than nothing.
9. You can go for a jog outside most months of the year.
10. You never have to deal with snow on the roads.
It's nice here, really.

It is freezing cold here. I'm so sick of the snow...and we got a truck load of it this morning. I'm just itching for spring...warm clothes...warm weather....bike rides...ice cream...etc.
AZ sounds great right about now.
what i wouldn't give to have citrus trees! we spend soooo much money on those things! we had a storm yesterday--i agree with carrie--bring on spring!
good luck!
Flip flops good, but seriously, a nice warm sweater hides love handles much more than t-shirts. I guess this is motivation to get in shape.
Now you are begining to see some of the things i love the most about the Valley! I miss it so much and i'm so excited to visit this weekend. We will see you in a couple of weeks! Can't wait!
yeah, the citrus trees sound pretty good. way to be positive! i'm also jealous that you and jill live so close to each other! i bet that's pretty fun. love you!
two additions...1. Easter Pageant
2. Grocery produce is fresh and yummy
sounds good to me! We just got some snow flurries today. I think that winter and spring in AZ would be great, I won't say a "negative" word about the summer, he, he. I think wherever we are, it is always best to do what you are doing, focus on the good. It's all gooooooood!
