I think of Coen Brothers settings, a la *Raising Arizona*: a desolate landscape with sparse, dry brush. A creaking sign swinging in light wind on a dilapidated 50+ year old small building with a rusty gas pump out front beside the gravel road.
I think of The Grand Canyon, Sedona and the Red Rock formations, The Phoenix Zoo, Saugauro National Park, Prickly Pear Cactus, Giant Saugauros, Gila Monsters, great spas, The Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix, Lake Mead, Montezuma Castle, Karchner Caverns State Park, London Bridge, Jerome ghost town, Old Tucson Studios, and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, lots of deserts. Arizona is a wonderful state to visit.
Arizona is one of my favorite states. A very diverse state, my favorite place is Canyon de Chelly. http://www.nps.gov/cach/index.htmAfter that:SedonaGrand CanyonSnowflakeSugaro CactiPainted DesertPetrified ForestMeteor Crater - how cool is this!!!Havasupi ReservationAntelope CanyonAnd I could go on for a while!!

I just love the variation in landscape...every corner you turn is a new adventure...SEDONA...GRAND CANYON...FLAGSTAFF...PHOENIX...ALLLL of it is just such a different experience...the only bad thing is that people walk really slow in the summer when its 120 degrees....lol...oh..and the drivers are reallly baddddd
Arizona is a very diverse state having everything except an ocean. To say it is only a desert shows ignorance. It is a beautiful state with much to offer. Phoenix is one of the 5 largest cities in the USA.
I ve heard it s very dry.Also, there is a Hey Monday song called Arizona so obviously it is a nice place :)
It s hot - that s what comes to mind for me.
I immediately think desert.
