"Things I love most about Tucson:

  • In any direction you have a spectacular view of mountains.
  • The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable.
  • Monsoon season and the smell of rain from the desert creosote is one of the best times of year and nicest nature smells.
  • The desert wildlife----coyotes, bunnies, jackrabbits, road runners, hummingbirds, javelina, and even the snakes.
  • The climate, sunshine almost all year-round
  • The people in Tucson are so friendly, and will always stop to say hello and help if needed. When people in Tucson ask how you are doing, they genuinely want to know the answer.
  • The Desert Museum
  • Kitt Peak
  • Conducive to exercising, with the loop trail for running and biking, and many beautiful trails for hiking.
  • Sabino Canyon
