Tucson, Here we come.

I need more in my life, like when I had friends to do things with here. We will be spending a lot of time with family and I need to get to know my father before its too late. He didn’t make a lot of effort when I was a kid but he is still my dad and I know I will completely regret it if I don’t take this chance.

Good call Clint... It might be tough for a while, but in the long run, you'll be glad you did.

When I moved back to the mainland in 93', I had all of the same mixed feelings, with the addition of huge cultural & climate changes.
It was one of the best decisions I've ever made, though at the time I had a lot of "WTF WAS I THINKING?" thoughts running through my head.
I moved from sunny Hawaii, directly into one of the most severe winters on record. On top of that, I stayed with my parents for the first month or two.

It was NOT an easy adjustment.

On the plus side, I got to spend the remaining years of my fathers life getting to know him better, rekindled old friendships that had been sorely neglected, & pulled my personal life into a more manageable state.

You & Cari are gonna do fine......

Most of those "outskirts" probably aren't outskirts any more! Chivo is a fun little trail and you don't have to travel to far. Makes a nice day trip. The "falls" however are hit and miss...if they are flowing they are awesome, if not they are usually bone dry but still a fun trip!

I was there in May after not being for a visit in two years, just the changes in town were crazy. I cant imagine what the rest has for me to see. I used to drive around alot to clear my head and think about things and I saw alot of the city I hadnt seen growing up on the east side.

Thanks Dub. I am definitely nervous about staying with him for a couple months. I haven't stayed around him more than four hours since I was 15. Him and his wife are smokers to boot... But his place is the only one we can go to with our animals until we get our own place.

I moved from sunny Hawaii,

Ah, that explains the laid back attitude!

Saturday is the big day... woohoo.

Billy, Be careful on your trip. I have been watching the weather down there.

Thank you kind sir.

Thanks, the weather has improved back to normal.

You make sure and drive safe...you will probably be heading through a few of the spots that were hit HEAVY with snow.

We are going to come down through Vegas and across the Hoover and I am not sure if Kingman got hit hard or not, I will have to look, I am not familiar with their weather. I thought that typically they are warm, but I have been wrong many times before.
