I would trust Roger's Automotive in Chino Valley. Alan and I have raced together and against each other for years. They are on the top end price wise, but the job will be done correctly.

I was just in the Prescott area last weekend.,,,,,absolutely beautiful area
We actually spent the weekend in Flagstaff then drove back down thru Oak Creek Canyon / Sedona area. Planning another weekend just in that area alone here real soon. Probably do some hiking at Slid Rock park.

Does your daughter want to be a pilot or an astronaut?


She'd like to be both but at nearly 6'-1" she'd not likely make an astronaut!


Why not!? Thats probably an average, or at least allowable height for a male astronaut?

Don’t think they’ll fit in my carry on luggage.
Headed to El Paso to see our son as well. That’ll be in the rental car though

Prescott is expensive real estate. Outside of Prescott is cheaper.
Check City-data.com for stats.
Look at trulia and windermere for housing, they both have good internet interface.
Temps are between PHX and Flagstaff, just as the elevation and map would indicate.
With the smaller population, you are not going to have the same ANYTHING as a large Metropolis like PHX. Not as many car clubs and swap meets, but also not the traffic.

IT'S DRY. Many people have no problem acclimating to it, but it is below 15% most of the time. You see pics of trees, but it's still the southwest.

Wife, son and daughters are headed back out as girls are headed for different colleges in Prescott. Is there a weekly rate place to stay as our son is staying until 1/15 before coming home. They are to be there 1/7. Surely a hotel would have a better rate for someone staying 7 days.

PLATINUM6BBL, I don't know what the rates are locally, I've only stayed at 2 places for a short time due to weather-related issues with the house (no power - am not going to freeze!).

I would look into BnBs in the area that are local owned/operated and contact them for a weekly rate.
They would be more likely to discount if they don't have to 'ready' the room daily and can count on occupancy.

I just can't get excited about the landscape in Arizona. Yeah, all my family is here but it is just so ugly. I lived in California for three years and loved the green grass and trees. Here it is just burned dirt, rocks and shrubs, just like Nevada.

$300 deposit has me wondering if they find the littlest thing wrong will I get the deposit back. Never done BnB before.

I just picked up this 1962 Buick Skylark Convertible in Cordes Junction yesterday.

Same family owned since 1964. - headed to Washington to stay with the son.

His parents lived in Dewey for the past (20) years.

They Love It ...
