I really like Arizona, even the desert parts near Tucson (although my favorite part is up in the mountains near Flagstaff). I could never live there though. It's like my daddy always told me, "Lynne, live where the water is" ;) posted by: ladyblog (reply) post date: 02.26.04 (6:08 am) I've never been to the desert. I have a friend who lives in AZ, and she send pics... the yard is mostly landscaped with gravel and sand and cactus. Everything browns or muted greens, not the lush colors I'm so used to living in New England. But I would love to see the Grand Canyon... TTFN |

I'd never been to the desert before I went to Tucson, Arizona, recently. When I was riding from the airport to the hotel, being slightly delirious from the travel and being up since 3:00 am, I was amazed by two things: one, the sheer numbers of people who were running red lights (including my driver) and, two, the palpable threat emanating from the various plants I could see from the car, all of which appeared to be transplanted from some hostile alien world unsupportive of human life.
