desert

You might want to consider leaving this mass alone. It's an important part of the Arizona desert ecosystem.

Here's why this structure is here and why it was built.

Growing up on the east coast, when someone asked me to envision a desert, Arizona was likely the first image to come to mind. Its place in old western and cowboy movies definitely helped, but with sand and dirt coving the ground and Cacti growing at every square inch, it's hard not to view it as such.

You might not want to live in Arizona when you find out what it's REALLY like. I mean, sunshine and nice people? Why would you want that? Why else is it terrible in Arizona? Find out!

Are the myths about Arizona true? Is our state really a super hot desert with cowboys running around all the time? Well yes. And no. Read on and discover the truth.
