Destination: Arizona
Arizona
It's a DRY heat! Arizona offers great active outdoor options, a wide variety of dining options in some of the cities, and if you golf, the entire state is like a dream come true. But if you are craving warm, sunny weather; Arizona is your place.

It's the "Grand Canyon State", and that is no small claim. It's no small canyon either. Another interesting tidbit: Arizona became a state on Valentine's Day, 1912. That automatically romanticizes the entire state.
Think "amazing ancient artifacts", think "pottery, paintings, jewelry", think "Saguaro!" (that's a cactus), and finally think "I need to get me some Arizona".
