@Babykittyjade I enjoyed living there. It was like another world, and everyone was friendly. My brother was in the Air Force, and I had just finished school. So I went there to teach while he was nearby. It was a fun adventure for me, but when the Air Force moved my brother, I didn't want to stay so far away from family on holidays. So I moved to Atlanta for a while and eventually back to the Tennessee mountains.
@Haflinger I don't doubt it! Irrigation has made it possible. Yes, Scottsdale and Mesa are both suburbs of Phoenix. So very close. I'm not a horse person. I'm a little frightened of them to be honest, so I probably just didn't notice them.
