Arizona is an amazing place to live. The weather is fabulous. The sky is gorgeous blue. The sun shines almost everyday. Precipitation totals are low. (Even though this past winter we saw more then usual.) These factors added all together… make for happy people. It’s true… there are no winter blues here.
There is so much to do here. Hiking is popular because of all the mountains and neighborhood trails. But there is so much more to do as well. Off roading can take you deep into the back country to see amazing sights. And yes… Arizona has Water… we have lakes and washes for fishing and boating. People, like me, go off roading to not only find the beautiful views but also to Rock Hound. Arizona is full of Rocks, Gems and Minerals!
Therefore I want you to be able to see what we see when we head out in our Jeep. So sit back and relax… and view the amAZing Arizona landscapes.
Mountains and Canyons…
Lakes, Washes and Rivers

Great post 😁
Thank you!
No problem 🙂 check out my blog when you get the chance 😁
Arizona is definitely beautiful! We visited several years ago and took in The Grand Canyon, Sedona, Painted Desert, and some amazing Native American sites. I would love to visit again. As always, your pictures are fabulous! Have a wonderful Tuesday my friend.
Arizona would love to see you again, Pam! Thank you for your kind words!
Arizona tourism would love this post. 🙂
Thank you Judy!
Nancy, this should be a brochure in every Arizona welcome center! Beautiful!
What sweet words! Thank you!
All I can say is AWESOME!
Yay! Thank you!
Several places there I would love to visit and I think I recognize a couple of people in one of those photos… names are on the tip of my tongue 😉
Lol! It’s a great place to visit!
That it is!
Awwww yes, I love Arizona too.
I know you do! Thank you for the visit!
You make me really long for it, with your fantastic pictures. Not that I needed those, though. AZ has long been on our bucket list. Maybe this autumn. We might do another of our “RailTrailsRoadTrips” – this time to the Southwest – which would include 6 days in Sedona. The plan/itineray is there, but we haven’t finally decided yet.
You will not be disappointed my friend. And how fun to see the countryside by rail!
Thank you for stopping in!
🙂
Wonderful collection of photographs showcasing the beauty of Arizona. Love it!
Glad you enjoyed! Such a fun state to live in.
Arizona is much like New Mexico…sorta under appreciated. But your beautiful photos show more. You have captured the real Arizona. I especially love the Sedona and Flag areas….and of course Lake Havasu and the beautiful Colorado River. Been down it many times. When I tell people that New Mexico has ice caves, they think I am joking….or that you can stand (or straddle) four different states at the four corners…they are amazed. Our beautiful Southwest is definitely the Land of Enchantment and I miss it so much. Thanks sweet friend for showing the real Southwest.
You said it perfectly! The Land of Enchantment!
It’s an amazing place. Lake Havasu is beautiful! We just got to experience this area.
Thank you for always stopping by on Tuesday!
You do the state proud….great pics and great post!! You tell the story of what we love about AZ so well!!
Thank you so much Kirt!
So much more beauty in Arizona than I even realized! I am always in awe of your photography. My sister has considered moving to AZ for her next move, I’ll have to send her this post as I’m sure it will convince her it is the right decision 🙂
It’s a beautiful place to live. The summer can get a bit hot but other then that… we love it!
I love your photos, Nancy. They are spectacular 🙂
Thank you, Clare!
Beautiful photos, Nancy. What type of camera do you use? Your photos are always so lovely! 🙂
A LUMIX 200 by Panasonic or my iPhone 7 Plus which takes amazing photos!
Thank you for enjoying!
Careful we will be jumping on a plane and knocking at your door! Last spring we spent some time there. Gorgeous.
I would open the door to you Sweet Sue!
Incredible photographs Nancy, Arizona is indeed a gorgeous place to live, Mother Nature in all her glory!

Jenna… these dams do so much! But the beauty of their lakes makes me happy! Stay tuned for my next post about Lake Havasu! Such a lovely place!
