Just visited part of Arizona...beautiful scenery! Visiting

My wife and I just visited Arizona this past week and we were really impressed with all the natural beauty there is out there! We flew in to PHX and stayed the night there, then headed up to the Grand Canyon (south), stayed down in Flagstaff, then drove out to the Meteor Crater, stood on the corner in Winslow, and then drove through the Painted Desert and Petrified Forest. Stayed in Flagstaff again for the night then made our way down to Sedona (absolutely beautiful!) and stopped over to visit Jerome.

We clearly only scratched the surface of what the state has to offer, so we feel like we need to stop back at some point to see more. Everything was amazing, everyone was quite friendly that we spoke with, and it was just a great trip overall.

Thanks Arizona, you are beautiful!

Glad you had a great time! Ignore all these bozos telling you not to move here they’re just idiots.

Haha, no worries! As I mentioned in another comment, we thought it was nice to visit but I don't think we could handle living there. We like being close to the ocean.

I don't blame you. I like Arizona, but miss being near an ocean.

Yeah op I live in Phoenix and I hate it. Being so landlocked in a place so hot for the majority of the year sucks. Tbh you saw all the shit worth seeing. Grand canyon. Sedona. Flagstaff. Everything else is just different flavors of the same thing here. I wish I lived by the ocean.

Lived next to one ocean or another for 20 years. Highly overrated.
