The One where we wish we were in AZ...

I realize now how spoiled we were to live in Old Town Scottsdale. I never appreciated how many great places there was to go to eat, shop, drink, people watch - so here is my "Top Ten Places I Miss in Arizona"



AZ 88 - the chicken sandwich and their martinis

Their Wine List

Postino's Bruchetta

Kona Grill Happy Hour

Fashion Square (esp. Nordstroms)

Chaparral Park - running around the lake with the dogs

Pita Jungle - Chicken Shwarma

zTejas's Chambord Margaritas then shopping
Seriously, people in Scottsdale should consider themselves the luckiest people on the planet because I have about thirty other places I miss on another list!
If one of these places came here (ABQ) the turkey's would go wild!

The One with the DoubleTree Hotel

Yea! I have a job at the DoubleTree Hotel in Downtown ABQ {never thought I would say those words...ever}!

I also have been using public transportation {never thought I would do that too}!

So each day I get up at 5:45 am - and catch the 7:15 am bus or train and get to read and relax until I get to DT at 7:35 am; then I work then catch the 5:15 pm bus or train and get home by 5:45 pm - I LOVE IT!!!

Since people here in ABQ drive like they are on a mission to die, I like my BIG safe transportation very much.

Also, it's a very green way to travel...
