Arizona is usually perceived as a bone-dry state where it's 120 degrees year round, where we all ride horses, and kick around tumbleweeds for fun. This, however is completely false.
Parts of AZ are a desert with cactus and the whole nine yards, it does get warm in the summer, but there are also mountains, pine trees, 2 ski resorts, and a small wine country. Yes, that's right, wine country. This was even news to me. Thanks to my "wine savvy" in-laws we got a complete tour!
Five wineries, lots of tasty vino, a new appreciation for the diversity of Arizona, great views, great company, one amazing day!
