Enjoying Phoenix with Taylor

One thing neither Gary nor I have mentioned is our biggest reason for hitting AZ first on our travels.  Our daughter, Taylor is a senior here at Arizona State in Tempe.  It has been a lot of fun to finally live where she goes to school.  No, she does not bring her laundry home for me to wash ;) but it is nice for all 3 of us when she comes home to eat dinner or just hang out.  She has also shown us some fun things to do here (like drink a bucket of alcohol at a local favorite ASU bar) and just recently after attending a Kings of Leon (!) concert, she and I took a road trip to the LA area to go to Disneyland (loved Cars Land) and Universal Studios (we are huge Harry Potter fans).  One more benefit of being in a rolling home, your surrounding area to explore can include some very cool and and fun things.
