It's been nearly a year since we sold and left Hawaii. In that time span I've lived a country music song backwards - got a new to me truck, a new motorcycle and of course a new to me Yamaha AR240. To finish it off we just closed on and moved into a house in the Phoenix, West Valley.

Lots of exploring to do as we learn about the area!

Tips and suggestions are welcome - and yes we already know it gets hot here in the summer. I'm from the deep south (of BC, Canada) so, I'm already accustomed to heat!!

So is a blow dryer, but I don't want it aimed at my face!

That was my response when I lived with my Mom outside Vegas (Pahrump). One valley east of Death Valley. Driest/Hottest place I've ever existed.

The Devils Taint…..that’s what my friends kids call it who moved there a couple years ago. I call it living inside an Easy Bake Oven. In the summer it cools off to 105°…..at night.

It is a dry heat except when the monsoons come. Get a good straw hat that you can soak and put it back in, AC for your head.

It gets so hot there the lizards carry a piece of grass in their mouth to stand on when they stop running…
