So true..

Julie and I have visited AZ a few times now. One trip was to the GC via
Williams from the South, then Flagstaff, Paige (Antelope Canyon) and then down
the east side to Canyon De Chelly, and then down to the Gila Monument oin
Silver City NM. Other trips took us to Sedona, Cottonwood, Jerome, Prescott
and eventually down to Phoenix and Scottsdale. Of those, we're most likely to
return to Prescott, possibly to retire. Time will tell!

So, Montana is a pretty spectacular location as well. Have been there a few
times now as well. Several pretty awesome parks to visit!
As you know, my Son settled in Corvallis, which is about an hour south of
Missoula, or .. just down the road from your daughter!
Just 20 minutes up the Bitterroot from the filming location for "Yellowstone"

Again, a beautiful place, but one of my previous visits was last winter. Not so
fond of the cold or snow. April was amazing for the wedding.

Our next trip it seems may be to head back down to Newcastle NSW. Not looking
forward to the 13+ hour flight but we'll nake the best of our time there.
