Wow! It has been months and months and months since Phoenix AZ has had any measurable amounts of rain. Tomorrow December 10th there is a 80% chance of rain! Yes!! Leave it to 2020 to create rain in December for us Phoenicians. This is going to be great! All the flowers and bushes will love getting some rain. I love the rain!

I probably owned 8 or 10 really nice wool … (28 comments)
After watching the news the last few days keeping abreast of what's going on with Hurricane Irene we're looking forward to a peaceful evening here in Phoenix Arizona. Many folks talk about how hot it gets in Phoenix during a few months of the summer - and they're right. We hole up in our homes or offices as much as possible - until night comes. And then it's our time to head to the pool, cool off, relax and feel grateful for the good life we live. It may be quite warm for a few summer … (9 comments)
move to phoenix: Peoria Arizona Homes - Small Town Living with Big City Amenities

Founded in the 1880s, Peoria is a suburban community located about 11 miles from Central Phoenix, named for after the hometown of families from Peoria, Illinois, who moved to the area to work the fertile land created by the Arizona Canal. One of its best-known attributes is the Peoria Sports Complex, Cactus League Spring Training home to the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners. In addition to sports, however, Peoria has quietly built a reputation for bringing arts and culture to the West Valley.
