Yes, Phoenix is really hot in the summer. We're down in the East Valley right now but we're going to move up to the north end of the Phoenix area next year so we're closer to the mountains. From there, it's only a 90 minute drive up to Flagstaff to cool off and play some golf in the summer. We're going to take a lot of Fridays off and take long weekends up in the mountains next summer. California has great weather...unequaled in the US. You have to live there for a while to experience and understand the weather, scenery, and all the outdoor activities.
Yes sir. I've been all over the world, and most of this country too. No place like it. You know, the geography in CA is so varied, it seems to mirror every state in America. Plains, mountains, deserts, beautiful country regions, valleys, hills, coasts. It really has it all. But don't get me wrong. I really like the desert and AZ. I just can't deal with their long summers. I've spent a lot of time in CA deserts too. It's really odd, one can be in the middle of Orange County, near the coast, and a short drive later, you can be in the middle, of a vast desert. I really like it.
