    Flagstaff is awesome minus all of the hippies, you can be in the Desert in less than 2 hours.

    Payson is really nice as well, it's a little bit smaller but closer to the Desert.

    How big of a town are you looking for???

    That's about as far as we're traveling now to go snowboarding so that's not bad.

    Right out side of any house. We have lots of hills, and they are covered year round with nice dirt. You dont have to wear all that crappy Winter clothing. Nothing like snowboarding in a T Shirt, and shorts. :)

    Ah, cool. He used to work for Tracks then B&B. The program that NJ Transit puts you through is difficult. My brother was studying nonstop for a year and a half. The hours are tough too - he has worked Thanksgiving/Christmas for the past couple of years. He doesn't mind it too much since it's more money but it kind of sucks to not know whether or not you're going to be able to spend the holidays with your family because for the first few years, you're always on call.

    It really doesnt hurt that bad. It allows you to hone your skills. Plus, after a few run ins with a cacti, and you'd be a gold medal contender in NO time!
    ALSO!!!! We have lakes galore! AND....I HAVE A BOAT! YO! You can learn to water ski!
