This past week I had some trainning in the heart of downtown Phoenix.

I wanted to post some pics of the hottest city in the United States.

My brother Gary and I visited Chase field.

Gary is a Phoenician.

Residents of the city are known as Phoenicians.

Located in the northeastern reaches of the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix has the hottest climate of any major city in the United States. The average high temperatures are over 100 °F (38 °C) for three months out of the year, and have spiked over 120 °F (49 °C) on occasion.

It is kinda of neat to be 90 miles away from the nations fifth largest city. But man It is even greater to drive up the hill to the mile high town of Prescott with it’s cool pines. The three days I was there it was around 111 degrees during the afternoon.
