I know you probably didn't mean to offend, but there sure were a lot of judgmental statements in there about the "desert life" etcetera. I can assure you that we're not all a bunch of trashtastic hell raisin' crazies over here. Come to Phoenix and sit by my pool, and I promise you - I won't be serving you a sour soft serve or Malt Liquor. :D
And, I even bet I could show you one of the most gracious times of your life in Vegas - it all depends on where you go and how you do it. All big cities (including Madrid, btw, as I recall when I was there) have crime and hoodlums and dirt and grime - as well as elegance and grace and charm and culture - and I just love the whole MESS of it.
I will tell ya though - I hated Vegas the first time I went; it took a second time for me to *get* - and then I had a grand time! :D
| Been there four times. Never again!
We have friends who live in Tucson. They have a big beautiful new home with below ground pool and all. To me it's still desert, dry and dusty and VERY hot in the summer. I just don't like this kind of living, but there are millions who do. Same as where I live. We have friends and family who come here and freeze. They are just not use to climate like this. I don't mean to offend anyone, or where they live. I'm just telling it like it is for me. No offense intended.
The lady I got Raziel from lives in Bakersfield and is right here on YT and she know's how I dislike going to her town, but she loves the heat, and takes no offense. |
