Moving to AZ - research thread

It doesn't have to be 5 days a week, but it will be for a bit anyway.

It should be about that time wise give or take pretty consistently. As long as 1-10 isn't shutdown. Otherwise, I will have to take other routes. Those are longer for sure.

 

I would just suggest a few test runs from the actual location your thinking of, that’s 2 hours minimum a day, that’s pretty significant

Either way good luck

 

I used to drive all the time. Didn't bother me a whole lot. Hopefully it still won't, haha. The gas cost, though, sucks! We're already well past the thinking stage, so it's too late now anyway, haha.

 

roger that.

Not sure how old you are , but ya, the older you get the less you want to do shit like that lol.

wish you the best, I’ll wave and say hi to the south !!

 

This never gets old compared to dead corn, grey cloudy skies , and super wind all the time

ahhh, been outside all morning on my patio

 

I'll be 50 here in a few months. For me, I can't stand living in a busy neighborhood in the city anymore. While technically we're outside the city limits in Casa Adobes, it's still the city as far as I'm concerned.
Which is funny, because when I was a kid, I hated living out in the middle of nowhere (at the time). My parents place is no longer out in the middle of nowhere, haha.

So, I can't wait to get out!

 

you and I are the same age then, and I concur , that’s why I moved farther out here , no thanks to the people everywhere deal, cars all over the streets near the house , and on and on, I came from that so all done

 

Awesome spot to enjoy a cup of coffee

What area did you end up moving to?

 

Northern Vail, kinda Rincon mountain foothills , 3200 ish elevation, I didn’t want winter which I was seeing more of when you went to 4-5k elevation

i really like the blend of being out away from things wide open with big lots but still close enough to be able to get things I need easy etc , way less traffic and complex roads etc out here

so these guys came through awesome with the recommendation!

 

Very cool, sounds like the perfect elevation.

Is there any trails out behind your house to check out?

 

hiking , biking , walking, or like truck driving trails?

I would guess so, but I haven’t had a chance to get out there yet, as far as bikes and walks, I’m not really into off-roading, I would be interested in a side by side someday

 

Yeah sorry, just hiking trails. I think you mentioned it was just wild desert out back

 

We will take you out. Sabino canyon might be a little ways away with tons of hiking trails. Or reddington pass/rd is a good spot for offroad trails and hikes; I think 7 falls is out there with a nudest area as well if that toots your flute!
