I was born and raised here, still live here. Some beautiful things to see but summers are beyond brutal!

this past summer was especially brutal. I have never liked the heat...but this was the worst...I think what 30 days of 110 or more.
And total rain this year was 3 inches.
I think this was the hottest summer and fall ever...for the state. I know other people love the state....I'm just not a member of that club.

What a beautiful state ya'll live in!
ETA: Can't wait to see some of the awesome hot air balloons I think @Kachina624 usually posts!
Smithsonian is one of my favorites ... I love their Ariel America series, and now I see they are doing European countries!
BTW .... Smithsonian has a great daily email newsletter!

I live in Arizona, but I'd rather live somewhere else.

Although I'm sure Arizona has hot air balloons, too, I believe you're thinking of New Mexico and Albuquerque's International Balloon Fiesta every October.

Actually, there were some balloons over Balloon Fiesta Park yesterday when it was just 25 degrees outside...

Yes, I know that.
I was simply mentioning @Kachina624 was always kind enough to post the pics for us, wherever they occurred.
