Leaving Las Vegas: Kicking up my spurs in Arizona

I'm enjoying my stay in Scottsdale, Ariz. A

lthough the local residents are all bundled up in winter coats due to the temps, I think the temps are wonderful mid 60s.

Yesterday I had the opportunity's to visit "Old Town" Scottsdale which is a Old Cowboy Town. I met the owner of the Rusty Spur Saloon, which just celebrated 60 years of business. This saloon is the last real cowboy saloon and a great little place to enjoy some country ho-down fun. The slogan here is "Come for a drink, stay for their experience."

All around the bar are $1.00 bills with people's names and states on them. The owner told me that they take all the bills off the wall the first week inDecember and donate them to St. Jude's children hospital. I was so impressed! If you're in town, check this place out.

Today I will be meeting with more hotel partners in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. If you are interested in planning a trip here or want more information please feel free to call or e-mail me.

Have a Wild day!
