But Az has some of the nicest retirement areas like Sedona, Cottonwood, Prescott. Much cooler than hot ole Phoenix and not far away. These areas have "perfect" weather!!

We were up to 108 yesterday in Tucson, but at night it cools off to the mid-70s. So we end up opening the windows and doors at night. It is beautiful. In fact, as soon as the sun goes down, it is perfectly pleasant to sit outside.

And it really is a dry heat. Yesterday we had 2% humidity here.

My girls (a Yorkie and a Westie) have a doggie door so they can stay in the air conditioning. However, I frequently find them sitting outside. So I guess they are comfortable too. I have bowls of water for them all over the house to make sure they stay hydrated.
