Six years is a pretty long stay for a military man. I guess part of what makes it a good or bad move is the proximity to family and recreation. I would melt in Arizona. I hear it is a good spot for a winter home. Make the best of your new adventure, I'm hoping it winds up being a hoot.
When I was in "this man's Army", the saying went like this: The two best duty stations you'll ever have are the one you're going to, and the one you're coming from.
Have a safe and easy PCS, and smooth shaving!
TN will miss you,
wish we could have met up, but hey we have the rest of our lives in front of us.
Arizona has some really good Skiing as well, make the best of it, a lot to see and do in AZ and NM area.
Best wishes for a safe transition,
p.s. SRP is in AZ to :D
with the exception of ft Drum, Campbell is the closest station to home.Quote:

there is a thread that just started about a get together in Arizona
Funny, the wife, kids and I had been in KS for 6 years when it looked like we might move to Arizona. I was super stoked about it after a bit of research on the state.
Now that said, family for me is already an airplane kind of endeavor, so an extra hour or two wasn't going to be a buz kill for me.
Moving sucks. Leaving friends and family behind - sucks. Change however is good for the soul. Enjoy Arizona knowing (if it helps) that at least one man on this forum is jealous of you :).
Arizona is a beautiful state, and as they say, "It's a dry heat." But up North you've got Flagstaff and the San Francisco Peaks, the Canyon, all those national forests, elk, Sedona. Enjoy, and stay cool!
and as I say, "heat is heat" once it gets above a certain temp it just doesn't matter anymore it's all just hot lol. I will be about as far south as the state goes, so I will at least have Tucson kind of near by.Quote:
