Hi,

My name is Kyle Vaughn, and I'm 22 years old living in the small town of Wickenburg, Arizona.  Since this is my first blog, I'll take the time to give you a little background on myself and the wonderful little town that I work/live in.

I have been living in a small town approximately 60 miles northwest of Phoenix, Arizona for a litte more than 18 years called Wickenburg.  After graduating from Wickenburg High School in 2004, I (along with every other graduate) was thrilled to get out of the small town trap known as "the Wick".   However, after spending two years of living the city life, I realized that type of lifestyle wasn't all that it was cracked up to be.  I soon began to discover that Wickenburg isn't just another small town trap, its much much more than that.

Wickenburg is a community, a network of family and friends, or perhaps you may call it just "one big happy family".  I have known and been friends with a lot of the same people that I was friends with in Kindergarden and I take comfort in knowing that these people are always gonna be there for me, and that I'll always be there for them.  Another thing that brought me back to Wickenburg, and will continue bringing me back, is that Wickenburg is surrounded by gorgeous desert.  As a huge fan of nature and wildlife, I am never disappointed at the beauty that is in and around Wickenburg.

Another thing that I enjoy about my town is that I am a huge dirt bike fan.  I ride every chance I get.  And in Wickenburg, you are never more than a 10 minute haul to some awesome riding terrain.  That also goes for horseback riders.  In fact, Wickenburg was named True West Magazine's no. 8 Most Western Town in America for the year of 2008.

Wickenburg is home to a bluegrass festival, countless rodeos, and the famed DC Riders, and Gold Rush Days.  During the DC Ride people come from all over the country to embark on a 5 day horseback journey.  And Gold Rush Days is an annual celebration held in February.  It is a 4 day festival including a carnival, parade, and vendor booths from all across America.

Anywho, I'll stop here for now.  I'll try to bring you more information on whats going on in and around Wickenburg as much as possible.  If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Thanks for reading!

~Kyle
