Things To Do in Arizona
Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

I used to be a courier, and I got paid $100 to take a package of prescription drugs up to a nursing home in Sedona every Saturday morning. I would stop by my friends house to pick him up and we would get up there when the sun was just coming up, stop on the side of the road next to Oak Creek, and catch our limit of rainbow trout before dropping the package off. Then we would go home and have a fish fry with the neighbors. Good memories.

I moved away from Arizona in the early 2000's to work on the east coast. Before I left I spent a lot of time in Sedona...at that time there was just 1stop light in the entire town. Oak creek canyon had a great little hotel where you could not get your phone to connect to the internet. At night you could see all the stars. When back when I retired to Tucson last year. My cool hotel was being torn down and there were multiple lights and turn around. People crammed together..."Paved Paridise and Put up a Parking Lot" sigh memories...sigh...

Key highlights you missed in the towns you covered: - Sedona: Mesa Grill at the Airport - Bisbee: Stock Exchange Saloon & Grill (original massive stock market chalkboard on wall) - Jerome: Haunted Hamburger (great food and view) - Cottonwood: Merkin Vineyards (way up on hill with beautiful view) - Prescott: Whiskey Row Courthouse square - Verde Valley: Train ride, many vineyards in the area, as well as the popular Sedona Adventures "Water to Wine" Vineyards and Kayak ride

My cousin lives in Oro Valley, Arizona and she sent me this link to watch. I enjoyed it very much. Now, I understand why she loves living in Arizona. She used to live in my town growing up in the North East. After about 5 years of teaching in a school in our town, she and her husband moved to Arizona. It seems there is so much to see and do.

I have stayed at the North rim 4 times. I live in phoenix, and you have to pass an area of Flagstaff before noon to miss the thunderstorms that flood and often close route 89. With pee, leg stretching stops I find getting to page, 130 miles away from the north rim, takes 8 to 9 hours. I usually stop overnight in Page, az, and drive to North Rim the next morning. Keep in mind that for much of the drive from page to the north rim Ranger shed is 130 miles of pitch dark, winding road with no cell coverage that floods when it rains. It is a beautiful drive. I bring oxygen and a satellite communicator. There are bison in some areas. Don't approach!

I was born and raised in AZ. I have been to the canyon at least 4 times, so breathtaking. The ski lift at Snowbowl in the fall is so beautiful, just bring warm clothes and blankets. Humphrey's Peak is over 11,000'. I love Greer, this has to be the most beautiful place in AZ, other than the Grand Canyon. I live about 12 miles south of Holbrook, so I'm quite familiar with the Petrified Forest/ Painted Desert. I have lived in many areas of AZ and there is so much more for me to see. Also the Grand Canyon train is so much fun, give it a try. TFS 👍

@darringreen8630 24 дня назад

Really nice guide, but check your spelling at the 8:09 mark. Also a fun fact of Tucson is it was also once the state capital. Oh, and UofA has a doctorate program in Astronomy related subjects because just 1 hr 12 min southwest is one of the world's leading observatories, Kitt Peak National Observatory, and yes, they give tours.

I don’t love Havasu but I have also gone in severe summers for years. One time it was 125 and your phone just dies outside on the lake. It’s 2.5 hours from Vegas and easy drive. June thru August is BRUTAL. The day time and night time is nasty.

Due to over load on visitors and new movers over growth. Our Arizona state is not the same. Very few places to actually getaway Alone for a Quiet visit. Gotta plan on less popular dates n holidays. And travel in summer when most leave back to there 1st homes. Newbies can't handle the heat here so nice we get a break. We take advantage of amenities to Staycation with discounts in those months

I have a question I been wanting to ask you being from Arizona what do you think about yucca Arizona. Reason I’m asking I just brought some property out there was wondering what you think about it. Never seen you do a video on it

@LivinginArizona 10 месяцев назад

I don’t know much about Yucca Arizona. The area is extremely remote. It’s an interesting area but mostly uninhabitable. It’s very similar to what you would find in Death Valley.

@dlogox2746 7 месяцев назад

I have a piece of desert in the yucca area. It is just a piece of cactus infested, sand with a plowed out sand "road".. no power, no water, great spot. I head into Lake Havasu every second day for supplies/water and kayaking. I tour the surrounding places of interest. Only there in April, but I have friends that stay November to March. It is what it is.

@ob1coyote 10 месяцев назад

I don’t recommend Lake Havasu unless you still think frat parties are fun. If you’re not there on a party weekend then you’ll have the whole place to yourself, but the town itself is pretty dull. Plan on fishing, or boating.

@trevertravis8963 10 месяцев назад

Lake Havasu is pretty boring if you don't have a boat.

@user-wx2oz5gr4z Месяц назад

I’ve lived in Arizona my entire life (76 yrs) and all of these places are wonderful. But I think it’s misleading to call most of these a day trip. Even leaving from Phoenix, which is fairly central, it can take hours to reach some of these destinations. To enjoy most of these an overnight stay would be advisable.

@tomcortis2624 2 месяца назад

I saw a video one time where you talked about being in the hottest place (Lake Havasu) and the coldest place (Greer) in the same day I can't remember what video it's in can yo help me I want to share it with someone.

I’ve watched a lot of your videos and so far have seen nothing about Sierra Vista. It’s 73 miles SE of Tucson. Really good retirement place, about 435,000 residents and all the shopping you need. Clean, safe, quiet, weather is better than many other AZ places. I was there in April. Gas at all stations was $3.59 per gl. In Tucson, ALL gas was $4.79 per gl. Huge difference. Can buy an average 3bed/2bath house in low to mid $200k and property taxes are low. Not a bad drive to Tucson, can do it in 1hr, 20mins, straight flat good roads. I live in Chapala, Jalisco and probably moving to Sierra Vista next year. Can you do a video on Sierra Vista? Thanks!

Have to be rich to do things in state of Arizona. People that are on SSI and SSDI and social security and VA benefits don't have the money to do things here.people on fixed income can't do things that have to pay for in Arizona it cost so much to go places and do things too.get to pay going on the swap meet and the farmers market and the zoos and more.
