I LOVE Arizona!

My brother and his wife live in Carefree, and love it. Their son lives in Scottsdale, and my brother wants no part of that mess. We grew up in a small town, and I guess we just like living like that.

Carefree is on the other side of Black Mtn from me. It's a totally different lifestyle from Cave Creek. Cave Creek could be called more like the Old West outside the commercial core. Carefree is more like Old Money, and it shows. The Boulders Resort is a World-class hotel in some VERY dramatic rock formations;

Just north of there, you can see Penis Rock from the main road;

Carefree Conference Resort is an upscale hotel that is in the heart (somewhat) of this area;

This one just opened a 1/4 mile from my house. You can walk to all the cool Cowboy/Biker Bars/Restaurants from there;

I forgot about Lake Pleasant, not having been there in over 4 years. It's a 30 minute drive west. The water level looks to be over 15' lower than what it was back then;

Bartlett Lake is about the same distance in the eastward direction;

Also just joined this private shooting range. It's located off the road to Lake Pleasant. You can buy glider rides along their access road;
