we had a little snow storm in February and I think a bit of rain in December, but in reality nothing since July.

I don't care, any moisture is good! tired of dry and windy. spring isn't my favorite season unless it is wet.

The standing joke here is "when the first settlers saw this area, they said 'well, this is Scenic, isn't it

We're full time RV'ers. Love AZ, NM & southern NV in the winter.

Spent 14 weeks in TX one year, areas we'd like to see again, but not high priority, not at our age.
