[Big Red Badger]

I lived in Tucson for 2 years then 3 in North Phoenix before joining
a race team in Indy.
Quit that in 2000 and
Moved back to
SoCal.
Retirement is Very
Close and Arizona
Is my dream and Desire.
California is Toast!

Our first time living here. We did our homework and chose higher elevation venue in AZ to avoid the extreme summer heat like they have in places like Palm Springs and Phoenix (low deserts). Last summer, our first summer here, it never once got over 94 degrees. Back in S. CA we would often get over 100 in summer. Can get a bit cold here in winter, and we had 2 snows about 4" each, and it was gone in 2 days or so. Nothing too extreme. Btw, I can't stand long snowy cold winters and why we avoided moving to the northwest. The older I get, the less we like the cold! ☺
