Selfie At the Arizona Border

Visited on: Wednesday, January 1, 2025
Cost: Free

My butt was hurting, and my back was a bit sore, but I certainly was happy to see the Arizona welcome sign. After leaving Colorado and seeing the temperature gauge in my Jeep drop to 5°, it was honestly a relief to see 60° weather.

I looked forward to the rest of the drive, wearing shorts and T-shirts and catching some rays in the desert.

A road sign reads "Welcome to Arizona, The Grand Canyon State" against an open landscape. The sign features an illustration of the Grand Canyon. Surrounding the road are dry grasslands and scattered trees under a clear blue sky with wispy clouds.

Yeah, that’s a happy dude.
