Please move here and embrace all AZ has to offer. Just don't be pissed when its 110 degrees in May. When Dec/Jan roll around you'll love it!
Oh, for a test run, put your oven on 110 and put your head in there for a few. Don't worry, its a dry heat!   |
Totally agree and my personal issue are the ones who move here and try to plant grass everywhere, with an elm tree and so on. This is the frigging desert, enjoy it for what it is. I have a small patch of grass in the back yard for kids and critters to play in, and the rest is 100% desert.
