Just arrived home from a trip to Bisbee, Az. Haha......now there is an Arizona culture. Actually, I really enjoyed myself and bought 6 acres of beautiful property near the San Pedros river in Palominos.
Can't wait to hear the responses.

Isn't Bisbee that town down southeast of Tucson? I read about it. I'd like to see Sedona myself, I hear it's very beautiful, though a bit too 'new age'.

New age?? What does that mean?

Yes, Bisbee is 90 minutes southeast of Tucson and it's like walking 40 yrs into the past. Sort of like the "twilight zone". Check it out sometime but don't expect too much excitement except for a guy that has a dog with a cat on it's back and a mouse on the cat's back. haha.....it's for real.....whatever that means. More bars than any town I've seen anywhere. What a trip! You won't find a Lotus dealer there.

New Age.

I was not sure if that was the "new age" you were referring to. Sounds like Arizona is a land of extremes!

He's very correct in that definition of New Age. Go to Sedona if you want to buy a power crystal or see UFO landing sites. There are lots of "hippies" and strange people in Sedona... they are generally really nice though. Some of them believe it's the center of the universe and that's why there is so much UFO activity (something about the Vortex?? I can't/try not to remember).
It's also the home of pretty scenary for a nice drive

Sedona is awesome and if you can get your elise on top of one of their "energy centers of the universe" you can add another 200hp.......
Awesome climate and the views cant be beat.

We were in town for 3 days, and it was just miserable. I don't see how people can live like that. Talking to one of the local RT owners he said he stays inside all day and goes out at night. And then in the winter it is freezing ass cold , you could not pay me to live in Tucson !
Don't worry, no one will offer.

Hey Josh, it did run (blow anyway), but there was no refrigerant in it. There is a leak at the bulkhead fitting on the suction hose opposite the compressor. But no problem, as you know that is what I do in the daytime anyway.

Hey Bob,
When my A/C dies I'm not going to the dealership.
I'm coming to you!
