RE: [QUAD-L] AZ

I use to live in Tucson and I loved the weather.  I do not mind the summer either.  Just zoom from air-conditioned house to the cool car then wherever you are going.  I am thinking of moving back south the snow in Denver is a pain at times.   Lester   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 04, 2005 6:57 PM To: quad-list@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] AZ   I'm in Phoenix.  I left Michigan because of the weather.   I'm glad to be gone.  I'll never go back to the cold zone for winter again.

It's great, 85 degrees here. It's a big change from my past, I'm wearing short sleeve shirts for the first time in 23 years. Which means my first sunburn on my arms in 23 years. We moved here in Sep. and we are on the South edge of a growing suburb. Only 1 close grocery store. It's said to be the fastest growing town in the country.  Already we have a number of stores and restaurants. A new freeway building 2 miles away. They are building a Starbucks, Wallmart, Costco, Samsclub, by the new freeway, plus tons of high-end stores near by. It's funny, every time we see a new store we like, we get happy. They are building a 10 acre park at the end of my street. 2 miles away they are building a huge 100 acre watrerbird preserve, filled with parks and paths, I can't wait. I got so lucky. We bought just after housing started going up. We picked this area because of pricing, but before we got here, they jumped lots. But after I bought, they sky rocketed. Houses!   on my block are going for 35%-40% more than I paid. They are halfway done building my pool. I'm not sure I will ever get in it, but I can't wait to be out sitting by the pool in the sun. I spent 23 years basically couped up sitting by the fireplace in my TV room, only getting out a few times in summer. Now, even if I stay home, I'm at least going outside, getting my niece from school, etc. Starting in March, on Tuesday nights the city has free "Music In The Park" different live bands, from rock to jazz to classic. Lots of cool things going on. I'm sure lots of cities do these things, it's just I was always to cold to go out in the nights. To you cold quads, moving somewhere warm can be a life changer.
