When I moved to Arizona last year, I quickly made an Arizona bucket list. At the top of my list were two spectacular sights, Horseshoe Bend and Antelope Canyon. However, I quickly became unconcerned with my travels as I buckled down with graduate school, working multiple jobs, and often working weekends or relaxing and saving money instead of spending. As my time in Arizona is coming to an end, my mom and I decided to take some time to travel Arizona a bit more.

During this time, we have explored areas I have visited in the past and many more that are new to my eyes. We have both had an amazing trip. Traveling Arizona during the winter months provides the advantage of smaller crowds and milder temperatures. In some areas, we have even enjoyed the snow-capped mountains and snow-covered scenes.
